Synopsis
The work of the French literary review, intellectual grouping and publishing team, Tel Quel, had a profound impact on literary and cultural debate in the 1960s and '70s. From its beginning in 1960 to its closure in 1982, it published some of the key essays of major poststructuralist thinkers from Roland Barthes to Michel Foucault and Julia Kristeva.
The Tel Quel Reader presents for the first time in English many of the key essays written by the Tel Quel group. It fills a much needed gap in the literature available on the poststructuralist movement. Essays by Michel Foucault, Julia Kristeva, a member of Tel Quel's editorial board, and a fascinating interview with Roland Barthes are all here made available for the first time in English. It provides a unique insight into the poststructuralist movement and presents some of the pioneering essays on literature and culture, film, semiotics and psychoanalysis.
