Summary/Abstract: The word “post” is used in the title of this paper as in the film industry abbreviation of “post-production.” In a series of connected sequences, the paper considers the meanings of “authenticity” in its relations to the existential project of the modern humanist self, and to the artefactual register of artistic (literary) expression, which at some point coalesce indistinctly. The aura of authenticity extends over both, and the observations “in post” seek to retrace this process from beyond its accomplished form.
