My dear friend. Could it be possible that you have confused deaths and lives? For it was Barthes who famously wrote The Death... and Foucault who then - two years later - questioned the assumption. Sending with much fondness.
Well, yes. And, of course, no. Foucault wrote about "la disparition ou la mort de l’auteur" in “Qu’est‑ce qu’un auteur ?” and it's not so much a questioning of the "assumption" as it is a questioning of the "author-function": his author is not a person (or not just a person), but a historically variable principle of classification, attribution and control that links certain "discourses" (Christ, I haven't written sentences like this since 1983!) into a "proper name, a regime of responsibility and a specific economy of circulation and value". Besides, a year before the Barthes essay, he wrote about the "mort/effacement de l'homme" in Les mots et les choses. Ergo sequitur: if homo is already dead, then the auctores are too, nest paw?
After the performances or separately? We're not sure yet. I'm cooking a mini version next Monday for the cast and crew...eight courses, starting with chocolate soup followed by oysters, then... who knows?

Where and when will the dinner be held? And will you serve it out of a caravan?!?!?

often when reading your words-I'm not entirely sure if it's fiction or not...this is what I enjoy about it.
It's nonfiction and nonnonfiction
