This Handbook surveys the state of the art in literary authorship
studies. Its 27 original contributions by eminent scholars offer a
multi-layered account of authorship as a defining element of
literature and culture. Covering a vast chronological range, Part I
considers the history of authorship from cuneiform writing to
contemporary digital publishing; it discusses authorship in ancient
Egypt, Greece, Rome, early Jewish cultures, medieval, Renaissance,
modern, postmodern and Chinese literature. The second part focuses
on the place of authorship in literary theory, and on challenges to
theorizing literary authorship, such as gender and sexuality,
postcolonial and indigenous contexts for writing. Finally, Part III
investigates practical perspectives on the topic, with a focus on
attribution, anonymity and pseudonymity, plagiarism and forgery,
copyright and literary property, censorship, publishing and
marketing and institutional contexts.
