Description
"Writing Degree Zero" by Roland Barthes is a seminal work in literary theory and criticism, first published in 1953. In this book, Barthes explores the concept of "writing" as distinct from "language" and "style." He argues that writing is a deliberate choice made by the author, a neutral or "zero degree" form that reflects the author's intention to communicate without the constraints of traditional styles and genres. Barthes delves into the idea that writing should not be seen merely as a transparent medium for conveying messages but as an active, formative process that shapes the meaning of the text. He distinguishes between "écriture," the term he uses to describe this act of writing, and other elements such as language (the system of signs used to communicate) and style (the personal touch of the author). .
