Author, text and discourse: philosophical studies of Michel Foucault

Journal Title: Мultiversum. Philosophical almanac - Year 2016, Vol 0, Issue 3

Abstract

The article presents an analysis of the philosophical ideas of Michel Foucault, which gives special meaning to the concept of «author», «text» and «discourse». The splitting of the functions of the author in the language today is very real. The original system of Michel Foucault changes our relationship to the text and author, and their interactions. Any text expressed in the specific language signs, and when it occurred the expression, the text begins its own existence regardless of the author, who wrote it, because each reader gives the text its own unique meaning, and only through discourse we can find common ground between author, work and reader. The author, though involved in the system of thinking which manifests itself through personification that stood in the way of the best of the object of discourse analysis. The discourse appears as a particular linguistic phenomenon, which functions by means of language (grammatical) rules, but the use of discourse takes into account social characteristics, and purposes of parties to a communicative discourse.
