With this book, Barthes offers a broad-ranging meditation on the culture, society, art, literature, language, and iconography--in short, both the sign-oriented realities and fantasies--of Japan itself. Roland Barthes was born in 1915 and studied French literature and the classics at the University of Paris. After teaching French at universities in Romania and Egypt, he joined the Centre National de Recherche Scientifique, where he devoted himself to research in sociology and lexicology. He was a professor at the College de France until his death in 1980. With this book, Barthes offers a broad-ranging meditation on the culture, society, art, literature, language, and iconography--in short, both the sign-oriented realities and fantasies--of Japan itself. "If Japan did not exist, Barthes would have had to invent it--not that Japan "does" exist in "Empire of Signs," for Barthes is careful to point out that he is not analyzing the real Japan, there is no terrible "innerness" as in the West, no soul, no God, no fate, no ego, no grandeur, no metaphysics, no 'promotional fever, ' and finally no meaning . . . For Barthes Japan is a test, a challenge to think the unthinkable, a place where meaning is finally banished. Paradise, indeed, for the great student of signs."--Edmund White, "The New York Times Book Review"

没看懂,即使晚上为了写paper又大致过了一遍还是没懂;哲学意味不浓,倒像是意识流;当初教授说这是一个法国人意淫中的日本,但读下来觉得很多明明就是现实中的日本文化,甚至很多都明明是中国的文化却被标榜了日本的标志;一本SAT甚至是GRE词汇书,姐查单词加起来三个小时...

如果不寄希望于把它当作文化研究或区域研究来读，还是一部很好的符号学反思小册子hh

“东方”成为符号学驰骋的田野。在今天应该是要被批判的对象吧。Barthes思维之巧妙真是让人佩服。对筷子和火锅的分析十分精彩。火锅：The Twilight of the Raw
