◆ Introduction :
Rolland Barthes's essay called 'From Work To Text' gives an in depth view and compare & contrast between work and text. He starts off by giving an introduction to explain that there is this new component that was once not so obvious.
● This essay based on this seven theories :
1. Method
2. Genre
3. Signs
4. Plurality
5. Filiation
6. Reading
7. Plesure
1. Method :
Text is not a defined object. It would be useless to attempt a material separation of works and texts. One must take particular care not to say that works are classical while texts are avant garde. The work is concrete while text is a method logical field. Work can be seen in book stores and catalouges, on course list etc... The work is physical, text is in language. The text is experience only in an activity or production.
2. Genre :
Text does not come to a stop with good Literature. It can not be devided as a part of a hierarchy or even a simple division of genres. Some writers cut across genres. Perhaps they write once and the same text in different genre. One could literary say that "The Text" is always paradoxical.
3. Signs :
Text is an approach and experience and relation to the sign while a work close itself on a signified. Signified is a secret and an ultimate as one has to search for it. Work is a general signs, text on the contrary practices the infinite difference of the signified.
Text is direct to it field of the signified and there is an idea of free play according to concept of Derrida.
◆ Conclusion :
The theory of the text is nothing else but practise plesure in a text transants , social relation and language relations.
Thankyou.
