by Jonathan Culler
Roland Barthes (1915-80) was an ‘incomparable enlivener of the literary mind’ whose lifelong fascination was with ‘the way people make their world intelligible’. He has a multi-faceted claim to fame: to some he is the structuralist who outlined a ‘science of literature’, and the most prominent promoter of semiology; to others he stands not for science but for pleasure, espousing literature which gives the reader a creative role.
