| | The Author Function (1970), Excerpt |
 | | A "philosopher" and a "poet" are not constructed in the same manner; and the author of an eighteenth-century novel was formed differently from the modern novelist. | | | Speeches and books were assigned real authors, other than mythical or important religious figures, only when the author became subject to punishment and to the extent that his discourse was considered transgressive. | | | Even within our civilization, the same types of texts have not always required authors; there was a time when those texts which we now call "literary" (stories, folk tales, epics and tragedies) were accepted, circulated and valorized without any questions about the identity of their author. |

| | Amazon.co.uk: Author, Author: Books |
| | Author, Author is not quite a new departure (the great novelist Henry James was a presence in Lodge’s much-acclaimed Thinks…), but here The Master is the central character in a brilliantly vivid picture of the man and his times. | | | As Du Maurier's Trilby, to the bewilderment of its author himself, becomes the bestseller of the century, Henry anxiously awaits the first night of his make-or-break play, Guy Domville... | | | In fact the Henry James of "The Master" and the Henry James of "Author, Author" might as well be two entirely different characters who only coincidentally happen to bear the same name. |

| | Foucault, "What is an Author?" (abstract) |
| | Foucault also directs attention to the name of the author and its role in classifying works, both works which fall under one name and those which fall under another. | | | Foucault proceeds in a fashion that may be termed his signature, for he does not wish to really pin down exactly what is an author per se, and seeks to identify the author in terms of how an author exists. | | | Thus, one may say that Baudelaire's poetry is Baudelairian, and one may also say that the works of another poet may be Baudelairian. |
