Description

Explore the complex boundaries of authorship and originality in this scholarly monograph from De Gruyter. Postmodern Plagiarisms examines how literary plagiarism is defined and sanctioned within Western culture. This study focuses on the period between 1970 and 2010, looking specifically at US-American literature to see how the appropriation of language can function as a radical and subversive act. While disciplines like music, painting, and theater have established appropriation as a valid way to explore the anxiety of influence, the literary world often struggles to acknowledge the acquisition of words, ideas, and manuscripts. This book investigates these tensions, offering a deep look at how postmodern authors use appropriation to challenge traditional concepts of creation. It is an essential resource for those studying the evolution of literary theory and the cultural agenda behind aesthetic strategies in modern writing.
