Synopsis
The Pleasure of the Text is a short book published in 1975 by Roland Barthes. It was written in French and later translated into English. Barthes sets out some of his ideas about literary theory. In the book, Barthes divides the effects of texts into two: plaisir (translated as "pleasure") and jouissance. Jouissance is translated as "bliss", but the French word also carries the meaning of "orgasm".
