{"product_id":"9783837634600","title":"Performing Authorship: Strategies of \"becoming an Author\" in the Works of Paul Auster, Candice Breitz, Sophie Calle, and Jonathan Safran Foer","description":"Authors not only create artworks. In the process of creating, they simultaneously bring to life their author personae. Approaching this phenomenon from an interdisciplinary point of view, Sonja Longolius develops a concept of »performative authorship« by examining different strategies of becoming an author. In regard to the notion of her concept, this work offers a critical and comparative analysis of the works of Paul Auster, Candice Breitz, Sophie Calle, and Jonathan Safran Foer. Specifically, Auster\/Calle and Breitz\/Foer form a generational pair of opposites, enabling a discussion of postmodern and post-postmodern artistic strategies of »performative authorship«.","brand":"Transcript Verlag, Roswitha Gost, Sigrid Nokel u.
