A Look at the Impact of Derrida's Deconstruction on the Critique of the Death of the Author: With an Analysis of the Function of the Mirror in Artistic Structures

This is an academic study examining the mirror as an artistic subject and its theoretical significance in postmodern art. The research engages with Roland Barthes's theory of the death of the author and Jacques Derrida's reception of it, while also applying Derrida's deconstruction theory to analyze how mirrors function in contemporary artworks. The study challenges the universal application of the author's death theory to new artistic works while investigating the mirror's aesthetic and philosophical role through deconstructionist frameworks.
