ROLAND BARTHES (1915–1980), one of the most celebrated French intellectuals to have emerged since Jean-Paul Sartre, wrote on a variety of topics including semiology, literature, fashion, and photography. His works include Writing Degree Zero, S/Z, The Pleasure of the Text, Mythologies, A Lover's Discourse, and the autobiographical Roland Barthes. RICHARD HOWARD won the 1970 Pulitzer Prize for Poetry for Untitled Subjects. A noted critic, he has also translated works by many prominent French authors, including Andre Gide, Claude Simon, Michel Leiris, and Marguerite Yourcenar.

Roland Barthes’s vast array of literary and cultural criticism offers contemporary exegetes a tempting buffet of postures and critical lenses. His sprawling corpus and challenging terminology render him difficult to categorize within the conventional schema used for the development of critical idioms. It is the intention of this chapter to provide an introduction to Barthes’s life and thought for practitioners of biblical studies. Accordingly, it will begin with a survey of Barthes’s historical and intellectual context. Next, it will proceed to an exposition of the methodologies and underlying worldviews he subscribed to over time. Finally, it will cover an example of Barthes’s own interpretation of the Bible (specifically, Acts 10–11), with an eye to comparing his procedures and conclusions to those of more conventional scholarship, as well as discerning the possible shortcomings or insights his work may continue to generate.

French essayist, linguist, literary critic, and semiotician, Roland Barthes (1915-1980) is hard to pigeonhole. His boundless curiosity for disparate life and speculative domains translates into a heterogeneous corpus of works, which covers art, fashion, language and writing, literature, love, myths, music, philosophy, photography, semiotics, and sport. His critique to the traditional notion of authorship (1967 [2002]) – a position positing the need to connect a text to its writer in order to interpret it – makes using Barthes’ biography to approach his intellectual production particularly sensitive. Barthes is sharp on the point when he says that the writer is not a text’s ‘author’ but a text’s ‘scriptor’. In doing so, he ratifies the ‘death of the author’ and the beginning of the modern writer’s era. The scriptor “is born simultaneously with his text; he is in no way supplied with a being which precedes or transcends his writing, he is in no way the subject of which his book is the predicate (…).” (p. 221) The scriptor’s role is hence that of assembling pre-existing texts (i.e. citations) in a novel manner and of empowering the reader. Since there is no ‘Author-God’, a text has no theological meaning; “nothing has to be deciphered” (p. 223).

This essay explores Roland Barthes' recourse to phenomenology, especially in the later work where his phenomenology is found to be more indebted to Husserl than to Sartre. It also finds parallels between what Barthes claims is the eidos of photography and what he implies about the nature of literature. Louis-Jean Calvet describes an encounter between thirty two year old Roland Barthes and one of the editors of the newspaper Combat, Maurice Nadeau, which resulted in Barthes submitting two manuscripts for possible publication. Nadeau agreed to publish one of them, "Le Degré zéro de l'écriture," and added a foreword in which he wrote "Roland Barthes is a young, unknown writer.. .. Yet, after several conversations with him, we decided that this young man, the fanatic about language (who has thought of nothing else for two years), had something new to say" (qtd. in Calvet 78). Barthes would later pass through various schools of thought; and indeed toward the end of his career he himself would list some of the stages along the way-social mythology, semiology, textuality, and morality-and situate his books within them. Of course, it is possible to question these phases and find other labels. Why not simply distinguish between "early" and "late" Barthes? Why not label the more inward-looking last phase "autobiographical"? What about Barthes the structuralist or Barthes the poststructuralist?1 In a biography of Barthes which appeared in 2015-a year which marked a revival of interest in Barthes particularly in Europe and North America as reflected in numerous international conferences, seminars, exhibitions, scholarly books and articles-Andy Stafford suggests that although Barthes would not shy away from making use of the tools provided by particular theoretical movements, he would at the same time resist or even undermine each 1

{Lara-Sophie Boleslawsky, University of British Columbia} As Barthes begins his 1968 essay citing Balzac, so too do I begin by citing a brief epithet by the Romanticist William Blake: “Both read the Bible day and night, but thou read’st black where I read white.” Just as Barthes uses the words of Balzac to point to the loss of an author’s identity, here this brief Blakean couplet crystalizes the very crux of this paper’s argument. While the corpus of Pauline epistles found within the New Testament are subject to debates surrounding issues such as authorship, historicity, and eschatology, one matter remains glaringly constant, namely, the presence of a reader (or multiple readers), who persist in their efforts to interpret the textual manifestations the Apostle Paul has left behind.

Barth's doctrine of Scripture may produce a scenario of (temporary?) flux for his readers. Initially it pulls the rug out from under a rigid post-Enlightenment literalistic approach to Scripture. In many ways, it shakes such Christian beliefs and, at least for some who accept it, it leads to something that appears to be a diminished view of Scripture. But such diminishment is only evidence that these readers have stopped short of the goal toward which Barth is moving. In a sense, Barth knocks down that which many evangelicals have presented as “orthodoxy” (and which has been received as orthodoxy for many evangelicals), only to present back to the church something that is perhaps an even more faithful orthodoxy—an orthodoxy that Barth suggests does not diminish the historic confessional faith of the church, but simply does away with a lot of the language picked up by the post-17th century Enlightenment church. In this paper I explain and reflect on Barth’s theology of Scripture as a helpful theology for conservative, reformed evangelicals—that is, helpful for those who do not stop short of the goal toward which Barth moves. In keeping with this objective, it will be instructive to examine Barth’s understanding of (1) the content of Scripture—what these words are that constitute Holy Scripture—and (2) his understanding of the authority of Scripture—how Scripture’s authority is established.

The impact of Reader Response Theory or Criticism on literary criticism over the past thirty-five years has been profound and wide-ranging. It emerged in the 1970s as an influential critical theory of the Post-Structuralist tradition firmly establishing the readers' role in interpreting/analysing literary texts. In essence, Reader-response theories reject New Criticism, the dominant literary theory and criticism from the late 1930s through the 1950s. The Reader Response critics claimed that the text comes alive only with the readers' active participation and interaction with the text. Here in the paper, I have tried to point what are the views of Roland Barthes about the author and the reader, what role does he assign to the reader and what place the reader has taken in the history of Literary Criticism. Keywords: modern scripture, literary theory and criticism, author, the role of reader, position and difference of reader, expectations and violations, deferment and satisfaction, formulation and un-formulation and restructuring of expectation, gap-filling etc
