The relevance of the literary personality--a writer’s distinctive attitudes, concerns, and artistic choic
es--to the analysis of a literary work is being scrutinized by various schools of contemporary criticism. Deconstructionists view the literary personality, like the writer’s biographical personality, as irrelevant. The proper focus of literary analysis, they argue, is a work’s intertextuality (interrelationship with other texts), subtexts (unspoken, concealed, or represd discours), and metatexts 9lf-referential aspects), not a perception of a writer’s verbal and aesthetic "fingerprints." New historicists also devalue the literary personality, since, in their emphasis on a work’s historical contexts, they credit a writer with only tho insights and ideas that were generally available when the writer lived. However, to readers interested in literary detective work--say scholars of classical (Greek and Roman) literature who wish to reconstruct damaged texts or deduce a work’s authorship--the literary personality sometimes provides vital clues.
