CONTENTS
In his textual analysis, Barthes tried “to say no longer from where the
text comes (historical criticism), nor even how it is made (structural
analysis), but how it is unmade, how it explodes, disseminates – by
what coded paths it goes off” (Barthes 1977: 126-127)

" The next time you pick up something to read, notice whether you
are consuming and taking the written word for granted, or you
are making associations and interacting with the text.
" Are you treating those written words as if they are etched in
stone with only one meaning, or as a layered tapestry that
echoes several possibilities?
DISCUSSION

thinking? What do you think is the best way to get the meaning
of a text/to analyse it? Are there points where you disagree or
particularly agree with Barthes?
