Criticism and Truth (Critique et Verite) by Roland Barthes (Farsi)

Açıklama

"Criticism and Truth" (French: "Critique et Vérité") by Roland Barthes is a seminal work that addresses the nature and purpose of literary criticism. Published in 1966, this essay is a response to traditional French literary critics who resisted the emerging structuralist approaches to literature. Barthes argues for a more scientific and objective analysis of texts, advocating for a criticism that transcends subjective interpretation. In "Criticism and Truth," Barthes challenges the notion that literary criticism should be solely based on the author's intentions or the emotional responses of readers. He asserts that traditional criticism often relies on subjective judgments and the supposed authority of the critic, which can obscure the true understanding of the text.
