Roland Barthes was a constant innovator, often as a daring smuggler of ideas from one discipline to another, and went on to produce some of the most suggestive and stimulating cultural criticism of the late twentieth century. In 1976, this one-time structuralist outsider was elected to a chair at France's pre-eminent Collège de France, where he chose to style himself as a professor of literary semiology until his death in 1980. 'A Very Fine Gift' and Other Writings on Theory contains Barthes's attempts to frame his lifelong curiosities in theoretical form, from his early musings on the sociology of literature through his high period of structuralism to his later reflections on Jacques Derrida.
