The Death Of Author
(roland barths)
The critical theory of Roland Barths stands on the basis of reader response thoery.The autor keeps on point the worth of the text at the hands of the reader.Every one in this world is unique in some way are the other even though there is same colour of the race human ,each ones mind set up is different .A father is different from his son this may be because of the generation gap as you can see it in R.K.Narayan's The Vendor of Sweets,there is a huge gap between the father and the son. father tries out his handon the buisness of sweet selling, where as his son doesn't have interest in learning and goes to America in order to learn creative writing; he comes back only as a man who depends on mechine even for creativity.where as, his father goes away to sanyasa leaving the buisness to his cousin.Similarly people of the same age differ because of the family setting and brought up. No two persons in the world has the same sought of experience.So definitely each one's out-look will change.The world changes andtheview also changes as Plato himself has put-forth idea of creating: he has said any work of art is thrice removed from reality.so at the time of creating a work of art itself it is thrice removed at the time of getting read by diffferent readers it will have diferent meaning equalent to the number of time it is read.when you place an object on table ,the viewer of the object will see it from his side ;if another person views from the other direction it will bedifferent perspective;since its view point is different.the essay "The death of the Author"puts forth the sameidea any work of art after it is created kills it writer .so the perspectiveof the author dies.If we take thewords of shakespeare: he had the view that after him his love will live forever through his writing; but the concept of love only lives nor him are his lover and is used by lovers in their own context.If we go throughthe critical essay of Stanley Fish"Is There A Text In The Class,"heputs-forth the differentmeaning of this ambigious sentence.The different meanings are ,do we follow aparticular edition orwhether we are going to have an introdutory class withoutaid of any text.From this wecan seethe multipilicity of the text in the hands of different reader.
