AGREED... death of the author isn't "I didn't like how this ended so I'm making my own ending", it's "this ending was about something else but this is the themes we got from it, even if that wasn't their intention at all" (at least, to our understanding)

yeah exactly! i don’t have a super good grasp of it myself, i think (i read the essay but didn’t really understand it), but from what i understand, death of the author means analyzing the text for what’s in it and what it communicates, rather than strictly adhering to what the author was trying to convey and ignoring, yknow, what the text actually says. n that’s the important part—that it has to do with what’s actually in the text. so my thought is headcanons are just making stuff up which is fine but u (general u) need to realize that’s what it is and not get lost in the sauce and mistake that for the text killing the author
