Frontispiece + 1 blank leaf + Half-title + TP + 1 leaf + 9 - [278] + 1 leaf = advertisements, Octavo. First Edition. His most important and certainly his most sustained critical analysis of a literary text-a short story by Balzac. Barthes attempts to show how even texts claiming to represent a "realism" are themselves simply a recombination of already existing observations. Thus, nothing is original. Barthes's study has had a major impact on literary criticism in the English-speaking world despite the fact that its particular mode of critical practice lies outside of any strictly repeatable or imitable model of reading. S/Z is also a landmark text within the history of modern literary theory, lying as it does precisely at the borderline between structuralism and post-structuralism. Original printed wrappers. Light bumping, spine sunned. Very good. PHOTOS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.
