The Eiffel Tower & Other Mythologies Roland Barthes (Farsi) Pocket-sizedDescription
"The Eiffel Tower and Other Mythologies" by Roland Barthes, first published in 1979, is a collection of essays that continues his exploration of modern myths and their functions in contemporary society. This book builds on the themes established in his earlier work, "Mythologies," expanding his analysis to include a broader array of cultural phenomena. The title essay, "The Eiffel Tower," examines the iconic Parisian landmark not just as a physical structure, but as a symbol loaded with various meanings.
