da

I think you mean author's interpretation. And yes, it does.

Wrong

(Anonymous) 2014-07-12 08:35 am (UTC)(link)
No, in fact it doesn't. Granted, it's a common misconception, and much beloved of fandom for obvious reasons. But nowhere will you find a genuine (not fourth hand, "I'm sure that's true, I heard it somewhere") academic strain that says the author's intention means *nothing*. It is one of a number of possible things one can get from the text, is all, and has been knocked off its pedestal as the only way to look at and interpret a text.

(Anonymous) 2014-07-12 11:48 am (UTC)(link)
No, it doesn't. It means that the author's interpretation has to be considered within its sociocultural context, and that through the act of reading, we share in the creation of a story.

It does not mean that the author doesn't matter; it means that the author is one piece of a whole, and that we mustn't only look at the author's intent when analyzing a text.

No it doesn't, although I usually do anyway.
