The Death and Return of the Author: Criticism and Subjectivity in Barthes, Foucault, and Derrida
Burke (sort of) argues against the "death of the author" nonsense introduced by Barthes, and also takes a look at similar ideas by Foucault and Derrida. The problem is that Burke takes the charlatanry of these three stooges seriously, which means that it's the usual slog to plod through the text in order to find the (literally) handful of pages here and there that contain anything of value.
