Angelo Guglielmi

Abstract

It would have been all too easy, when illustrating Guglielmi's anthology published in 1981 - which we will discuss here -, to refer to Barthes' own Piacere del testo (1973), to which the Italian critic blatantly, and explicitly, refers already on the first page of his introduction. We can assume, therefore, that Feltrinelli's clever graphic designer preferred to divert to another Barthesian editorial product, in order to make the thought of the two authors in question graze - like two hands and two arms.
