Introduction

What would I like to say as an introduction? Introduction is the preface of the text. The text wants to deconstruct and sabotage the institutionalized ideologies of the world. The text is a protestant, wanting to use a dialogue that promotes free thinking and also create thoughts that are munificent to the building of an unbiased democracy. The text wants to ring with an echo of hope. The text also addresses the challenges facing a post-colonial era.  Meaning stands with a plethora of interpretation. The text lives to celebrate meaning. The text has borrowed ideas from post-modernism, post-structuralism, feminism, Marxism and literary-psychiatry. The pen has become the pleasure of the text. The text rests upon dialogic interpretations. The muse of figurative language is used

What's an Author

The Philosopher Roland Barthes in his phenomenal essay has proclaimed the death of the author, meaning the text ritualizes into life with interpretative reading and writing. The author comes to life with the writing of the text.

Here in this essay, I would like to enunciate what is meant by an author. The following are the ideas of narration that I have developed.

1 Aestheletics

Aestheletics is birthed from the words, aesthetics and dialectics. Aesthetics as we know is the science of beauty. Dialectics has come from the philosopher Hegel and later developed by Marx as an ideology of class struggle. For the Philosopher Hegel, dialectics meant that every proposition had a thesis followed by the antithesis and then a synthesis. For the Philosopher Marx the idea of dialectics was class struggle and class war against the ideological       apparatuses of the State. Now what is Aestheletics? Aesthelectics (Aesthetics and dialectics) is a dialogic encounter of the author to the writing of the text. The class war of the author, derived from Marx comes to a transition with the socio-cultural ruminations of the author to write a text. History, gender, politics, and culture become the role playing models which engage the writer into the writing of the text. The text makes a transition from the conditioning ideologies of the society and culture to a liberalism and iconoclasm. The ritual of the text is a poem of subjectivity.

2 Mental Corybantism

Corybantism comes from Greek culture from the lexicon of Corybantic meaning a drunken revelry and a ritualistic dance and sexual orgies of Greek dancers. Mental corybantism for the author is the dance of creative ideas and the writer has to indulge in creative madness to birth a text. The author is becoming of the text. The author is a dance in streams consciousness narrative.  The muse of the author becomes creativity in altered states of consciousness. The pen becomes a persona of poetic subjectivity. The pen is a garland of copulation. The pen is an ecstasy of mental madness. The pen is a ritual of sweet masochism and sadism. Letters are poems which wake up in the pen.

3 Psycho-Catharsis

Psycho-catharsis is an ideology of internal reflection and the bringing out of the Socratian womb and exodus of creativity. The form of the text is from the ego of the author. Psycho-catharsis proceeds to the unconscious of the author. Texts become phallic or vaginal in the writing of the discourse. The gaze of the text is an appropriation of intentionality. The text is a ritual of the excess of a deranged mind to copulate in the ecstasy of Freud’s calypso. The narratology of the text is the subversion of the id, the sublimation of the ego and the violation of the ideology of the super-ego.
