An author is the creator of an original work—such as a book, painting, sculpture, or musical composition—that has been published or made public. The term matters legally because it determines who owns the rights to a creative work, though this can shift in cases where someone is hired to create something on behalf of an employer or client.

L'autore (dal latino auctor, derivato dallo stesso tema di auctus, participio passato del verbo augeo "aumentare", ma anche dalla radice di auctoritas, "autorità"), in senso archetipico, è il creatore di qualcosa, "colui che fa aumentare" l'insieme dello scibile e del fruibile.
