Items related to A Lover's Discourse: Fragments
'A Lover's Discourse' is a detailed, painstaking anatomy of desire. Its mini-topics range throughout the entire gamut of love and beyond: jealousy, waiting, letters, being in love with love itself, the meaning of 'i love you', quarrels, the threat of suicide, love at first sight, and more. All readers will find something they recognize in Barthes' recreation of the lover's fevered consciousness: the book is an ecstatic celebration of love and language.

An ecstatic celebration of love and language' Washington PostThe language we use when we are in love is not a language we speak. It is a language addressed to ourselves and to our imaginary beloved. It is a language of solitude, of mythology, of what Barthes calls an 'image repertoire'.Reviving the notion of the amorous subject beyond psychological or clinical enterprises, Barthes' A Lover's Discourse is a book for everyone who has ever been in love, or indeed, thought themselves to be immune to its power.
