Read 3 times. Last read October 31, 1995 to December 31, 1995.

French thinker Roland Barthes deploys a semiotic analysis of contemporary “myths.� The essays are aimed at a general audience, and while they are impressively intellectual, they are neither inaccessibly technical nor abstract. The articles on wrestling, striptease and advertising stand out in particular.

Acquired 1995
