![]() ’The Philological fragment takes on the value of ruin, conjoining the functions of monument and of evocation what is remembered and lost is the living unity of a great individuality, author and work. In Reading in Detail: Aesthetics and the Feminine Naomi Schor articulates the Barthesian detail as the ‘corporeal detail on which the speaker of A Lover’s Discourse fasten is in the alphabet of the unconscious.’. Barthes takes us on a discursive journey, a performative utterance and structure of address to the other through absence, affirmation, waiting, circumscribing, contingencies, bodies, declaration, embrace, image, the unknowable, langour and silence. It is as Barthes explains a structural portrait of ‘someone speaking within himself, amorously, confronting the other, who does not speak. " my truth is to love absolutely "A Lovers Discourse by Roland Barthes consists of a peripatetic fragmentary writing which explores the ‘extreme solititude’ that is a lovers discourse evicted by authoritative discourses, placed outside as it were, yet perhaps spoken by ‘thousands of subjects’. Maybe you won’t shed your long lodged tears, but you surely will feel the dither in your eyes – the haunting reality of love, the rupture of desire and a hollow ghost wandering the broken lands of amorous drips. Barthes combines the sad reality of love, its psycholinguistic enigmas and the perpetual effort of the lover to bridge the incomprehensible gap in his love, to make the reader (if the reader has been a lover) relate, resurrect and revive the fatal identity of the lover that resides within him. Beautiful as a Keatsian chord, painful as Beethoven’s delirious love and subtle as Chopin’s sadness, Barthes’ poetry of love, although sometimes painstakingly intense, slips into the spasm that trembles inside the heart of the mad lover and the pathos of desire. Barthes’ aphorismic poetry traverses the subtleties of experience that quivers inside the romantic agony of love. Borrowing from Nietzsche, Goethe, Freud, Stendhal, Sade and others, Barthes penetrates the heart and the head of the lover, studies the emotion behind the lover’s diction, his zeal and feverous intimacy.
