"What is striking to me is the poverty of our paradigms for explaining ourselves to ourselves. Authorship is one such paradigm. The notion of authorship is implicit in the way we explain a vast range of generative activities from the way game shows are created to the way babies are made."
--from "Mothers and Authors," Critical Inquiry (1996). |
