Contents Breton and Bataille in the late 1930s : the convulsive community -- Breton and Baitaille in the 1940s : transparent and absent communities -- Sartre in the late 1940s : the literary community -- Early Barthes, late Barthes : the end of community?
Summary Taking as its point of departure the notion of community in mid-twentieth century French literature and thought, this study seeks to uncover the ways in which Breton, Bataille, Sartre and Barthes used literature and art to engage with the question of reconceptualizing society. In exploring the relevance these writings hold for contemporary debates about community, Lübecker argues for the continuing social importance of literary studies. --From publisher's description.
