书籍介绍
These essays, as selected and translated by Stephen Heath, are among the finest writings Barthes ever published on film and photography, and on the phenomena of sound and image. The classic pieces "Introduction to the Structural Analysis of Narrative" and "The Death of the Author" are also included.
ROLAND BARTHES was born in 1915 and studied French literature and classics at the University of Paris. After teaching French at universities in Romania and Egypt, he joined the Centre National de Recherche Scientifique, where he devoted himself to research in sociology and lexicology. He was a professor at the colege de France until his death in 1980.
用户评论
惊喜在于eisenstein以及musica practica。s/z在本书中就已经初露峥嵘。
除了收录了最有名的“作家之死”，罗兰巴特重读拉康signifier和自己的学生兼同事Kristeva的signifiance的文章短小精悍，the obtuse meaning和the Text的概念非常适合用来重新解读诗歌，他的解读有助于理解Kristeva的semiotic. 如巴特所说，language is always vague and conflicting. 而作为学者和老师，我们其实应该是可以发现floating, suspensions, layers of meanings in language而不是将自己假设为权威或者是one meaning的卫道士。The teacher is not the analyst but the analyzed.
Barthes particularly stresses the writerly text and its nonlinearity.
兜兜转转，还是要回到罗兰巴特
A good book, but a little difficult to understand
作者之死，读者之生
The writer dies at the deadline. 截稿之后，语言符号开始成为起作用的主体，而非作家本人。多年前，《白鹿原》电影发布会上，陈忠实说过类似的话。
索绪尔认为，在一门语言中，决定个体讲话人的语言之意义者，并非讲话人，而是先前已经存在的意义体系，讲话人知识使用了该意义体系而已。巴特使用文本的概念表示一些相互竞争的写作的集合；书写者不是创造，而是引用这些写作。书写者只能引用已经存在的写作，因为这是他手头仅有的资源。书写者唯一可做的不过是将其集合成大杂烩而已。在巴特看来，读者对构成文本的多种相互竞争的写作进行解码，从而取得了权威的地位。
the discontinuous world of symbols plunges into the story of the denoted scene as though into a lustral bath of innocence.
