Understanding Barthes, Understanding Modernism: Understanding Philosophy, Understanding Modernism

Editat de Professor Jeffrey R. Di Leo, Zahi Zalloua
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 feb 2024
Understanding Barthes, Understanding Modernism is a general assessment of the modern literary and philosophical contributions of Roland Barthes.

The first part of the volume focuses on work published prior to Barthes's death in 1980 covering the major periods of his development from Writing Degree Zero (1953) to Camera Lucida: Reflections on Photography (1980). The second part focuses both on the posthumously published material and the legacies of his work after his death in 1980. This later work has attracted attention, for example, in conjunction with notions of the neutral, gay writing, and critiques of everyday life.

The third part is devoted to some of the critical vocabulary of Barthes in both the work he published during his lifetime, and that which was published posthumously.

Recenzii

[The] book succeeds in conveying Barthes's awareness and engagement with thinkers and writers of his time as well as his dynamic curiosity for future lines of thought, both of which continue to make his corpus, like modernism itself, so tantalizingly resistant to the unrelenting tenacity of academic labelling.
Understanding Barthes, Understanding Modernism is a further testament to the enduring insistence of the writing and thought of Roland Barthes. Mapping Barthes' brilliance across the inevitably multiple and heterogeneous constellation of his interventions, exploring and extending his legacies, and, in superbly Barthesian style, offering punctual insights into the "conceptual inventory' generated by his writing, the volume succeeds in making of the reading of Barthes' work a paradoxical experience of newness and return. The volume will be required reading for any who seek to understand Barthes' vital contribution to his time and ours.

An extremely stimulating collection by a transatlantic group of distinguished contributors, this volume combines very rich essays on many aspects of Barthes' work, from the earliest to the latest, with useful summaries of key ideas. Any student of Roland Barthes will find things of interest here.

Reading Barthes means thinking about modernity in all its forms. Providing a panoramic account of Barthes's engagement with literature, aesthetics, popular culture, and philosophy, the essays in this collection illuminate our understanding of Barthes's multi-faceted thought and show how his insights continue to resonate and to inform inquiry across disciplinary boundaries.
This book is a necessary inclusion on the shelf of any Barthes scholar as it fully explores the vast constellation of his thought through nuanced and comprehensive studies and applications of his work.
