1Image, Music, Text: EssaysFontana. 1977.ESSAYS SELECTED AND TRANSLATED BY STEPHEN HEATH 'Image-Music-Text' brings together major essays by Roland Barthes on the structural analysis of narrative and on issues in literary theory, on the semiotics of photograph and film, on the practice of music and voice. Throughout the volume runs a constant movement 'from work to text': an attention to the very 'grain' of signifying activity and the desire to follow - in literature, image, film, song and theatre - whatever turns, displaces, shifts, di…Read more

Camera Lucida: Reflections on PhotographyHill and Wang u.a.. 1981."Examining the themes of presence and absence, the relationship between photography and theatre, history and death, these 'reflections on photography' begin as an investigation into the nature of photographs. Then, as Barthes contemplates a photograph of his mother as a child, the book becomes an exposition of his own mind."--Alibris.

3Voici enfin recomposé, et présenté pour la première fois, un ambitieux projet de Roland Barthes : celui de suivre, dans l'histoire de l'humanité, le processus de lent dépôt de la trace de l'écriture, signe monumental, matière gravée ou peinte, allant jusqu'à la composition du texte, des textes, jusqu'à l'émergence de la lecture, du lecteur, de la jouissance de lire.

10'A very fine gift': and other writings on theorySeagull Books. 2015.Roland Barthes, whose centenary falls in 2015, was a restless, protean thinker. A constant innovator, often as a daring smuggler of ideas from one discipline to another, he first gained an audience with his pithy essays on mass culture and then went on to produce some of the most suggestive and stimulating cultural criticism of the late twentieth century, including Empire of Signs, The Pleasure of the Text, and Camera Lucida. In 1976, this one time structuralist outsider was elected to a chair a…Read more

19The Pleasure of the TextMacmillan. 1975.What is it that we do when we enjoy a text? What is the pleasure of reading? The French critic and theorist Roland Barthes's answers to these questions constitute "perhaps for the first time in the history of criticism... not only a poetics of reading... but a much more difficult achievement, an erotics of reading.... Like filings which gather to form a figure in a magnetic field, the parts and pieces here do come together, determined to affirm the pleasure we must take in our reading as against…Read more
