This dissertation focuses on Karen Blixens pseudonym and its consequences on thereception of Out of Africa. We support our reflections on Paratextos Editoriais, by GérardGenette. We raise a brief overview of women writers of English literature who usedmale pen names in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. We aim to understand howeditorial features as title and cover are reflected in Out of Africa. Supported by a broadframework of memories (letters, biography, autobiography, photographs, filmadaptations etc.) we discuss the memories that Blixen kept from Africa and laternarrated in Out of Africa. We review the important texts on the subject of autorship:Roland Barthes and his essay The Death of the Author and Michel Foucault and hisWhat is an author?. In addition, we use the review of Roger Chartier about literaryproperty, in which he analyzes what Foucault calls the function-author. With the aid ofbiographical criticism, we will address Karen Blixens writer image. We'll look over herfavoritism of oral tradition and its effects in Out of Africa.
