Is “Death of the Author” dead in Pop Culture?
I’m in a digital literary studies course and we are learning about the theory of “the death of the author” and I am wondering how that theory can even work in the digital age of social media.
I feel like with social media, artists and their personas become one. Would you consider the artist’s persona a part of the text and therefore not dead?
