«El grado cero de la escritura, seguido de Nuevos ensayos críticos» is Roland Barthes's literary criticism essay, published by Siglo XXI in paperback.
Barthes posits writing as a form with its own entity, apart from language and style, reflecting the writer's link with their era: from classical transparency to modern neutral writing, in parallel with bourgeois consciousness. It includes «Nuevos ensayos críticos», on authors such as La Rochefoucauld, Flaubert and Proust.
Translation by Nicolás Rosa; the original «Le Degré zéro de l'écriture» appeared in 1953. This Spanish edition, 144 pages, was published in 2012.
For readers of literary theory and cultural criticism, and for those who want to approach Roland Barthes's thought.
