Barthes, Roland, 1915-1980
Mourning diary : October 26, 1977-September 15, 1979 / دفتر خاطرات عزاداری. Yas günlüğü. Roland Barthes ; translated by Mohammad Hossein. - Tahran : Hartman, 2012. - 272 p. ; 14 cm.
The language of the book is Persian.
The day after his mother's death in October 1977, the influential philosopher Roland Barthes began a diary of mourning. Taking notes on index cards as was his habit, he reflected on a new solitude, on the ebb and flow of sadness, and on modern society's dismissal of grief. These 330 cards, published here for the first time, prove a skeleton key to the themes he tackled throughout his work. Behind the unflagging mind, "the most consistently intelligent, important, and useful literary critic to have emerged anywhere" (Susan Sontag), lay a deeply sensitive man who cherished his mother with a devotion unknown even to his closest friends.
