John Sturrock’s classic explication of Structuralism
represents the most succinct and balanced survey available of a
major critical movement associated with the thought of such key
figures as Lévi-Strauss, Foucault, Barthes, Lacan and
Althusser theory.
* * A classic work in literary and cultural theory.
* Reissued to coincide with calls for a return to
structuralism.
* Includes a new introduction by Jean-Michel Rabaté, which
explores developments in the reception of structuralist theory in
the past five to ten years.
