Correction
[edit]It appears that this page claims that Bob and George had the first author character. This is a very common misconception. The first author character was in Neglected Mario Characters. I'm going to correct this. -Sprited Spheniscidae — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sprited Spheniscidae (talk • contribs) 04:58, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
Fallacy
[edit]The information contained on this page concerning the New Criticism is incorrect; New Criticism is actually quite the opposite of what is here presented, the Death of the Author is actually a similar view to many of the New Criticism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 138.28.152.213 (talk) 01:02, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
Pseudonyms
[edit]It would be useful to further comment on authorship with regards to the use of pseudonyms. An important question in that field would be, how the adoption of a (non-narrator) persona by a writer affects the authorship of his/her text: Is a person writing once under his/her real name and once under an adopted name still the same author; or is it two different authors that are writing and just happen to spring from the same person? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.149.16.69 (talk) 00:49, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
