Abstract

Insisting that his world can best be understood in terms of the paradoxes he perceived in the very activity of writing, Lombardo similarly sees in Barthes the crucial ambiguity that determines the modern writer--an irresistible attraction for something new, different, breaking with the past, yet also an unavoidable scorn for the contemporary world.

Abstract

Renowned philosopher and prominent French critic François Noudelmann engages the musicality of Jean-Paul Sartre, Friedrich Nietzsche, and Roland Barthes, all of whom were amateur piano players and acute lovers of the medium. Though piano playing was a crucial art for these thinkers, their musings on the subject are largely scant, implicit, or discordant with each philosopher's oeuvre. Noudelmann both recovers and integrates these perspectives, showing that the manner in which these philosophers played, the composers they adored, and the music they chose reveals uncommon insight into their thinking styles and patterns.Noudelmann positions the physical and theoretical practice of music as a dimension underpinning and resonating with Sartre's, Nietzsche's, and Barthes's unique philosophical outlook. By reading their thought against their music, he introduces new critical formulations and reorients their trajectories, adding invaluable richness to these philosophers' lived and embodied experiences. The result heightens the multiple registers of being and the relationship between philosophy and the senses that informed so much of their work. A careful reader of music, Noudelmann maintains an elegant command of the texts under his gaze and appreciates the discursive points of musical and philosophical scholarship they involve, especially with regard to recent research and cutting-edge critique.

Abstract

The lecture volume plumbs a seductively diverse and infinitely confusing subject: love. From Tristan and Isolde to Don Juan, Cecilia Valdes, Emma Bovary, and the love fables of modern mass media, the relationship between love and life, and between literature and passion, is analyzed in this volume with scholarly dispassion. Unsere Vorlesung versucht, einem verführerisch vielfältigen und unendlich verwirrenden Thema näher und auf die Schliche zu kommen: der Liebe. Und zugleich einer Tätigkeit und kulturellen Praxis, die Literatur erst zum Leben erweckt: dem Lesen. Was haben Leben und Liebe mit dem Lesen, mit dem Akt der Lektüre zu tun? Es geht beim Lesen immer um die Sehnsucht nach einer Ganzheit von Leben und Liebe, um die Herstellung jener Totalität, die uns Menschen im realen Leben grundlegend entzogen ist. Allein die Literatur erlaubt es uns, über die Totalität eines Lebens mit seinen Anfängen und seinen Enden zu verfügen. Und genau dies gilt auch und gerade für die Liebe und deren Geschichten und Vorgeschichten. Von der Liebe und dem Abendland (Denis de Rougemont) bis zu den Fragmenten einer Sprache der Liebe (Roland Barthes), den Schreibformen des Marquis de Sade, von Giacomo Casanova oder Italo Calvino über die Liebes- und Lesekristallisationen Prousts bis hin zur Liebe in den Zeiten der Cholera (Gabriel García Márquez), von der Liebe zwischen zwei Dichtern und der Transzendenz ihres Begehrens (Juana Borrero) zu den Liebesgeschichten zwischen den Sprachen und Kulturen (Assia Djebar), hin zu den Theorien der Liebesgeschichten nach der Liebe (Michel Houellebecq), von Tristan und Isolde über Don Juan sowie Romeo und Julia bis zu Sab, Emma Bovary und den Versatzstücken aktueller Massenkommunikation zwischen Lese- und Liebesrevolution soll das Verhältnis von Liebe, Leben und Lesen, von Literatur und Leidenschaft leidenschaftslos analysiert werden.

Abstract

Album provides an unparalleled look into Roland Barthes's life of letters. It presents a selection of correspondence, from his adolescence in the 1930s through the height of his career and up to the last years of his life, covering such topics as friendships, intellectual adventures, politics, and aesthetics. It offers an intimate look at Barthes's thought processes and the everyday reflection behind the composition of his works, as well as a rich archive of epistolary friendships, spanning half a century, among the leading intellectuals of the day.Barthes was one of the great observers of language and culture, and Album shows him in his element, immersed in heady French intellectual culture and the daily struggles to maintain a writing life. Barthes's correspondents include Maurice Blanchot, Michel Butor, Jacques Derrida, Michel Foucault, Julia Kristeva, Claude Lévi-Strauss, Georges Perec, Raymond Queneau, Alain Robbe-Grillet, Marthe Robert, and Jean Starobinski, among others. The book also features documents, letters, and postcards reproduced in facsimile; unpublished material; and notes and transcripts from his seminars. The first English-language publication of Barthes's letters, Album is a comprehensive testimony to one of the most influential critics and philosophers of the twentieth century and the world of letters in which he lived and breathed.

Abstract

A new critical consideration of the writings and works of Roland Barthes and Victor BurginThe influence of Roland Barthes on Burgin’s work is well documented. Equally, Burgin’s prominence as an artist and theorist concerned with text and image offers a productive dialogue with Barthes’ work. Victor Burgin has long been considered both theorist and practitioner, while Barthes is more known as a theorist and writer. In bringing to the fore Barthes’s practice of painting and drawing, Barthes/Burgin prompts a new critical consideration of Barthes/Burgin, theory/practice, writing/making and criticality/visuality.Barthes/Burgin features two new interviews with Burgin, one concerned with his turn to new digital practices and the other a reflection on his reading of Roland Barthes. Also included are images and texts from the artists and an essay critically examining Barthes’ exercises in drawing and painting.This book accompanied an exhibition at the John Hansard Gallery (February to April 2016), bringing together recent projection works by Victor Burgin and a selection of drawings by Roland Barthes rarely seen outside of France. The exhibition played with Barthes’ use of the slash as established in semiology (and notably used in the title of Barthes’ key poststructuralist work S/Z).Key FeaturesPublished as the official catalogue of the exhibition of the same name that is being held at the John Hansard Gallery in Southampton, as well as a stand-alone art and philosophy bookOver 20 full-colour illustrations, including newly commissioned work by Victor Burgin and images of Barthes’ work on paperContains newly commissioned text by Victor Burgin and unpublished conversations with him on his recent projection works and their theoretical implications
