In Roland Barthes by Roland Barthes, the critic urges his reader to consider what will be read "as if spoken by a character in a novel". Spreading the signs of this displacement throughout the book, Barthes evokes the relation between writing and the disappearance of the subject, developed years ago in "The death of the author". This article has the intent to explore how, in accusing the fissure of the subject as his ontological position, Barthes radicalizes the notion of a dispersed self in order to think the self as a performance.
