Where it came from
Published in 2019 by Bloomsbury, Patrick ffrench’s Roland Barthes and Film serves as a scholarly exploration of the French theorist’s enduring yet complex relationship with cinema. The book situates Barthes not merely as a critic, but as a thinker whose work consistently engaged with the medium as a language, a site of pleasure, and an instrument of ideological critique.
The text was developed within the context of contemporary film theory, aiming to synthesize Barthes's scattered essays and lectures into a cohesive analysis. By examining specific works such as Camera Lucida and his writings on filmic meaning, ffrench provides a detailed account of how Barthes’s structuralist and post-structuralist methodologies evolved over time to address the moving image, making this a foundational resource for students of semiotics and cinematic history.
