Abstract

This paper considers the following questions: what is an author? What conditions can an author be legitimated in? Can the experience of the unconscious replace the classic question of the place of the author? Considering the act of writing that establishes in the subject a necessary exile condition, the discussion introduces the idea of an effacement of the place/suject so that the place/author can appear. Among other examples the present paper considers T.S. Eliot’s work.
