*******************************************

/From Shakespeare to Autofiction//focuses on salient features of 
authorship throughout modernity, ranging from transformations of oral 
tradition and the roles of empirical authors, through collaborative 
authorship and authorship as ‘cultural capital’, to the shifting roles 
of authors in recent autofiction and biofiction. In response to Roland 
Barthes’ ‘removal of the Author’ and its substitution by Michel 
Foucault’s ‘author function’, different historical forms of modern 
authorship are approached as ‘multiplicities’ integrated by agency, 
performativity and intensity in the theories of Pierre Bourdieu, 
Wolfgang Iser, Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari.///

/The book also reassesses recent debates of authorship in European and 
Latin American literatures. It demonstrates that the outcomes of these 
debates need wider theoretical and methodological reflection that takes 
into account the historical development of authorship and changing 
understandings of fiction, performativity and new media. Individual 
chapters trace significant moments in the history of authorship from the 
early modernity to the present (from Shakespeare’s //First Folio//to 
Latin American experimental autofiction), and discuss the methodologies 
reinstating the author and authorship as the irreducible aspects of 
literary process.//
