| Description | Since the years 70ies a specific theory of reading, writing and narrative perception originates in the thinking of Roland Barthes. Influenced by author’s reading of psychoanalytical and phenomenological writings now he turns to mental space of the reader - he cares about reader’s experience and, subsequently, his subjectivity and mainly phantasms, inner scenarios motivated by desire which in the Barthes's work A Lover’s discourse: Fragments equal to figures. The notion of figure refers to another of important features of Barthes's theory: we mean theatricality. The figures present the dramatic play within the text but also they challenge the reader to the game of codes: they aspire to become the projection space of identification. Our article then in its first part tries to present the epistemologic shift to the perception of narration and, in the second part, deals with the A Lover’s discourse: Fragments whose figures also represent the illustrated examples from the In search of lost time by Marcel Proust. |
