The death of William Golding: authorship and creativity in darkness visible and the paper men
No full textIn the seventies and eighties William Golding was deeply responsive to the critical, anti-authorial ethos that followed the publication of Roland Barthes's "La mort de I'auteur" (1968). In Darkness Visible (1979) and The Paper Men (1984) he investigates means by which to reaffirm authorial presence. Working through paradox, he performs the authorial death in these novels, and establishes language’s inadequacy as a means of conveying absolute meaning, authorial "vision," truth or revelation. Having done so he nonetheless gestures towards the divine, towards the possibility of a vatic communication. In this manner the novels work upon principles of contradiction and collapse. What remains is a discourse of hope, promise, desire, without means of substantiating such optimism. Thus Golding might be said to have practiced a form of negative theology, and to have anticipated in this respect some recent trends in literary theory

John Golding
No full textThere are plenty of critics who started out as artists, but rather fewer artists who enjoy any success as critics or historians. John Golding (1928-2012) excelled in several different fields at once: as author of a standard work on cubism (1959) and of a prizewinning collection of essays on the pioneers of abstraction (Paths to the Absolute, 2002); as occasional contributor to the New York Review of Books and The Burlington Magazine; as the teacher of a couple of generations of art historians..
