FAQ About The Role of Dada Poetry in Modern Language Experimentation

How does Dada poetry challenge the concept of authorship?
Dada poetry challenges traditional concepts of authorship by prioritizing chance and collaboration over individual creative genius. Techniques like cut-ups and randomization deconstruct the idea of the author as the sole originator of meaning, instead presenting text as a product of collective interaction and external influence. This perspective aligns with the Dada movement's overall rejection of hierarchical structures in art.
