2. On The Death of The Author By Stephen Carter Stephen Carter (www.stephencarterpaintings.co.uk) is course director of Byam Shaw School of Art, which is part of Central Saint Martins, London. Stephen Carter participated alongside Intentism founder Vittorio Pelosi and Paisley Livingston (Academic Dean, Faculty of Arts and Chair Professor of Philosophy, Lingnan University, Hong Kong) in a debate around Intentionality and the Death of the Author at The University of Arts, London annual alumni Weekend in 2009. (A podcast of the talks can be listened to under the Media hyperlink on this website.) This essay is a very well thought out response to many of the questions surrounding Barthes infamous pronouncement. There is much here that Intentists would agree with and no doubt other areas that Intentists would take issue with. It is recommended reading and the essay is now a new topic of debate in the Discussions section of this website.
