Description

In the final stages of his career, Roland Barthes abandoned his long-standing suspicion of photographic representation to write Camera Lucida, at once an elegy to his dead mother and a treatise on photography. In Writing the Image After Roland Barthes, Jean-Michel Rabaté and nineteen contributors examine the import of Barthes’s shifting positions on photography and visual representation and the impact of his work on current developments in cultural studies and theories of the media and popular culture.
