On Signs
View details
Annotation: On Signs opens up semiotics to a broad, nonspecialist audience. Here the founders of the discipline, along with some of the leading "signmakers" of contemporary culture, undertake to explain the signs in subjects as diverse as El Salvador's death squads and ladies' lingerie, the letters of Pliny and the windows of Tiffany's, fashion, food, film, jokes, psychoanalysis, and history.

The postmodern condition
View details
Other title information: a report on knowledge
Notes: Translation from the French by Geoff Bennington and Brian Massumi, foreword by Frederic Jameson. Originally published in France as La Condition postmoderne: rappot sur le savoir (1979)
Annotation: Many definitions of postmodernism focus on its nature as the aftermath of the modern industrial age when technology developed dynamically. In The Postmodern Condition Jean-Francois Lyotard extends that analysis to postmodernism by looking at the status of science, technology, and the arts, the significance of technocracy, and the way the flow of information and knowledge are controlled in the Western world. Lyotard emphasized language; the world of postmodern knowledge can be represented as a game of language where speaking is participation in the game whose goal is the creation of new and ever-changing social linkages

The Subject of Semiotics
View details
Annotation: Through the writings of Ferdinand de Saussure, Roland Barthes, Jacques Lacan and others, the kindred disciplines of semiotics and structuralism have stirred enormous interest within European and American intellectual circles in recent years. With their focus on the ways in which signs, symbols, and cultural phenomena of all kinds convey meaning, these burgeoning theoretcial fields have had a special impact on the analysis of fil and literature. In this provocative book Kaja Silverman undertakes a new and challenging reading of recent semiotic and structuralist theory, arguing that films, novels, and poems cannot be studied in isolation from their viewers and readers.

Palimpsestes
- Dependent title
- la littérature au second degré
View details
Annotation: Un palimpseste est litéralement, un parchemin dont on a gratté la première inscription pour lui en substituer une autre, mais où cette opération n'a pas irrémédiablement effacé le texte primitif, en sorte qu'on peut y liter l'ancien sous le nouveau, comme par transparence. Cet état de choses montre, au figuré, qu'un texte peut toujours en cacher un autre ,ais qu'il le dissimule rarement tout à fait, et qu'il se prête le plus souvent à ine double lecture où se superposent, au moins un hypertexte et son hypotexte - ainsi, dit-on l'Ulysse de Joyce et l'Odysée d'Homère. J'entends ici par hypertextes toutes les œvres dérivées d'une œvre antérieure, part transformation, comme dans la parodie, ou par imitation, comme dans le pastiche. Mais pastiche et parodie ne sont que les manifestations à la fois les plus visibles et les plus mineures de cette hypertextualité, out littérature au second degré, qui s'écrit en lisant, et dont la place et l'action dans le champ littéraire - et un peu au-delà - sont généralement, et fâcheusement, méconnunes. Jëntreprends ici d'explorer ce territoire. Un texte peut toujours en lire un autre, et ainsi de suite jusqu'à la fin des textes. Celui-ci n'échappe pas à la règle : il l'expose et s'y expose. Lira bien qui lira le dernier. A palimpsest is literally a parchment from which the first inscription has been scratched out to replace it with another, but where this operation has not irremediably erased the original text, so that the old can be read under the new, as if by transparency. This state of affairs shows, figuratively, that a text can always hide another, but that it rarely conceals it completely, and that it most often lends itself to a double reading where at least one hypertext and its hypotext are superimposed - thus, we say, Joyce's Ulysses and Homer's Odyssey. I mean here by hypertexts all works derived from an earlier work, by transformation, as in parody, or by imitation, as in pastiche. But pastiche and parody are only the most visible and minor manifestations of this hypertextuality, a literature of the second degree, which is written by reading, and whose place and action in the literary field - and a little beyond - are generally, and unfortunately, unknown. I undertake here to explore this territory. One text can always read another, and so on until the end of the texts. This one does not escape the rule: it exposes it and exposes itself to it. He who reads last, will read well. (translated with Google translate)

The Dialogic Imagination by M. M. Bakhtin
View details
Other title information: Four essays
Annotation: These essays reveal Mikhail Bakhtin (1895-1975)—known in the West largely through his studies of Rabelais and Dostoevsky—as a philosopher of language, a cultural historian, and a major theoretician of the novel. The Dialogic Imagination presents, in superb English translation, four selections from Voprosy literatury i estetiki (Problems of literature and esthetics), published in Moscow in 1975. The volume also contains a lengthy introduction to Bakhtin and his thought and a glossary of terminology. Bakhtin uses the category "novel" in a highly idiosyncratic way, claiming for it vastly larger territory than has been traditionally accepted. For him, the novel is not so much a genre as it is a force, "novelness," which he discusses in "From the Prehistory of Novelistic Discourse." Two essays, "Epic and Novel" and "Forms of Time and of the Chronotope in the Novel," deal with literary history in Bakhtin's own unorthodox way. In the final essay, he discusses literature and language in general, which he sees as stratified, constantly changing systems of subgenres, dialects, and fragmented "languages" in battle with one another.
