Roland Barthes (1915-1980) was a major French writer, literary theorist and critic of French culture and society. His classic works include 'Mythologies' and 'Camera Lucida'. 'Criticism and Truth' is a brilliant discussion of the language of literary criticism and a key work in the Barthes canon. It is a cultural, linguistic and intellectual challenge to those who believe in the clarity, flexibility and neutrality of language, couched in Barthes' own inimitable and provocative style.
Review:
''A remarkable account' Fredric Jameson 'Barthes outlines some key concerns: plurality of meanings; analysis, based on linguistics, of the structures of possible meanings; the idea of a science of literature; and the dynamics of reading... a lively and accessible statement of an important modern critical position that is worth reading.' Library Journal'
Table of Contents:
Foreword; Preface to English-language edition; Criticism and Truth; Part I; Part II; Part III; Notes; Background notes Index.
