中文摘要 | 巴特於一九六八年大膽宣稱「作者已逝,讀者將生」。次年,傅柯立即 在「作者為何」一文中回應巴特的宣言。傅柯由歷史的縱斷面來看,指出作家的 名字,實為論述的產物 (discursive effect),有其特殊的功能性,而不能與作者混 為一談。本篇文章則由巴特相傅柯遣兩篇作品出發,由作者一字字義的演變及各 種不同的詮釋中,闡明作者一字原便有「作」與「述」的兩種涵義,巴特在呼籲 「作者已逝,讀者將生」時,已將作者定義為只「作」 (create originate)而不「述」。 而傅柯固然已了解到作者實為文化的書記,卻在文未提出「論述原創者」(founders of discursivity)一觀念,而又落入他急欲推翻的「作者為創作者」此一觀念中。因 此,巴特相傅柯的理論固然複雜,卻仍不離二分對立的父權邏輯,而因此忽略了 意義的產生,固然不能由作者控制,亦非完全由讀者決定,而是由讀者、作者、 作品、文化及語言傳統之相互動中產生。 |
英文摘要 | Ever since Barthes and Foucault, the "authority" of the"author" has been called into question. Toward the end of his essay,"What is an Author," Foucault sketches a Utopian future in whichhe enyisions not only the death of the author but also the demise ofthe "author-function" as an ideological construct. In this paper, Ipropose to stage a feminist intervention in Foucault's "metafantasy" by calling into question the necessity of doing away withthe author-functions, as Foucault envisions it. This paper asks, inother words, Barthes and Foucault one fuiidamerit3.1 questionpertaining to the act of reading: does the birth of the reader nave tobe at the cost of the death of the author? I will thus attempt todisentahgle authorship from authority by uncovering the multilayered codes with which each concept is marked and thus exposethe imprisoning dichotomy that the Barthesian and Foucaldiandebate over the author as either subject of or subject lo. stiU suffers;whether consciously or unconsciously- The authorities that the textexercises derive as much from the author, the reader/critic, as fromthe linguistic, generic, cultural, and symbolic traditions both theauthor and the reader sanction and uphold. As liberating asFoucault's theory seemingly is, it still has blindspots requiring ourcaution, whether we are feminists or not. |
