THE IDEA OF AUTHOR IN THE MODERNITY, THE POSTMODERNITY, THE NEOMODERNITY
Actualisation of existence in modern society requires a review of the basic concepts of culture, one of which is the «author». It is shown that the Christian idea of the author-creator undergoing significant changes in modern and postmodern. Stages of these changes are concepts «death of God», «death of the author», the transition from the concept of the creation to the concepts of text and discourse. The concept of the author continues to maintain personal basis (Foucault) and the desire for a clear understanding and expression in the philosophy of postmodernism. The concept of the author as personality is eliminated from mass culture. The postmodern ideology ignore the concept of the author and gives way to the concepts of the game of meaning in the mind of the reader and self-formation of meanings of writing. Today we need to return to the culture of the author-creator, who is responsible for its creation. The term «Neomodernity» is proposed by us to refer to the new state of culture.
