- The main research for–and writing of – this longer-form output, which is approximately 80,000 words in length, took place between 2012 and 2018. It is the first book to offer a complete panorama of Barthes’s sustained engagement with the Proustian oeuvre across three decades of a shifting critical landscape (1950-1980), and is based on archival research. It provides close readings of both Barthes’s and Proust’s work and analyses several texts by Barthes that have received very little critical attention, including a substantial set of unpublished seminar notes that form part of the ‘Fonds Roland Barthes’ held at the BNF, Paris.
