Barthes investigation into the meaning of photographs is a seminal
work of twentieth-century critical theory. This is a special
Vintage Design Edition, with fold-out cover and stunning
photography throughout. Examining themes of presence and absence,
these reflections on photography begin as an investigation into the
nature of photographs - their content, their pull on the viewer,
their intimacy. Then, as Barthes contemplates a photograph of his
mother as a child, the book becomes an exposition of his own mind.
He was grieving for his mother at the time of writing. Strikingly
personal, yet one of the most important early academic works on
photography, Camera Lucida remains essential reading for anyone
interested in the power of images. 'Effortlessly, as if in passing,
his reflections on photography raise questions and doubts which
will permanently affect the vision of the reader' Guardian
