Ben:
I’m interested in contributing constructively to this online reading group. The text of Barthes’s that I know best is Mythologies. I read S/Z years ago while surveying the topography of narrative theory in general. I’m gearing up to teach a couple of narrative-heavy courses in the fall semester and planning to forge ahead with a writing project this summer; doing a deep dive into S/Z while in the company of others interested in doing the same would be helpful.
