Abstract:
This is a study of the collaborative creation behind literary works that are usually considered the work of a single author. Stillinger examines case histories from Keats, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Mill, and T.S. Eliot, as well as from American fiction, plays, and films, to demonstrate that multiple authorship is a widespread phenomenon.
