Parution – “Authorship in Context”

Authorship in Context. From the Theoretical to the Material

Edited by Kyriaki Hadjiafxendi and Polina Mackay

New York, Palgrave Macmillan

2007, 256 p.

Description

This book maps the terrain of Anglo-American authorship as it shifts from a theoretical to a more material approach to its study in contexts recognized as key to its development: the nineteenth-century literary marketplace, twentieth-century experimentalism and postmodern culture. Gender and (post)colonial issues around authorial identity and literary work are further explored in relation to publishing policies, graphic media, and the Internet.
