Nah, Scottie, it was actually good old formalists of the generation prior to 
the one that spread the current French disease around (actually, YOUR 
generation, Scottie :) ) that abandoned the idea of authorial intent.

     What Anna's anecdote illustrates is the pathetic aping 
     by the American educational establishment of chi-chi 
     French literary theory - & the slavish adherence to 
     the same by a whole generation of Americans 
     (&, sadly, Ozzies) for whom conformity of thought 
     is, evidently, the highest good.
