Abstract
Abstract:In his essay "The Writer on Holiday" ("L'Écrivain en vacances"), published in Mythologies, Barthes seems to denounce the bourgeois sacralization of the "Writer" who, even on vacation, is incapable of not working. But, in reality here, Barthes isn't referring to writers in general. He is talking about himself—and his own difficult (almost melancholic) relationship with laziness, which he has discussed in other autobiographical texts and interviews.
摘要:在发表于《神话学》的文章《假日作家》(L'Écrivain en vacances)中,巴特似乎在谴责“作家”的资产阶级神圣化,因为即使在假日,“作家”也无法不工作。但实际上,巴特指的并不是一般的作家。他是在谈论他自己——以及他自己与懒惰的艰难(几乎是忧郁的)关系,他在其他自传文本和采访中也讨论过这一点。
