title = {Performing Authorship: Strategies of »Becoming an Author« in the Works of Paul Auster, Candice Breitz, Sophie Calle, and Jonathan Safran Foer},
year = {2016},
note = {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«.},
