Someone has scanned in the full text of the essay What is an Author? and made it available. Previously only excerpts were available (at the Foucault.info site).
The legal status of these texts is unclear. Additionally, since this is an image scan, it seems to me nothing is gained over having the original book (a text-based scan is at least searchable).

please send me michel foucault’s what is an author
for some one in grade 3 please
do we have a bibliographical reference for this text? Thanks!
I found this scan of What is an Author: http://artsites.ucsc.edu/faculty/Gustafson/FILM%20162.W10/readings/foucault.author.pdf and have managed to find out that it comes from this book: http://www.amazon.com/Language-Counter-Memory-Practice-Selected-Interviews/dp/0801492041 Hope it proves useful. It seems pointless having the text when you cannot reference it.
