Abstract

In The camera lucida, Roland Barthes forms a critical reflection on photography. In this work, the semiotician denouncing the myths of the photograph is the poet of haunting images to an invitation
to the difficult task of recognizing the natural riches that may be perpetuated in a photographic image. I fear there another look toward the imaging techniques, and other than that coming from the well-thinking tradition, with his veto of the simulacra. We played with the hypothesis that the theses of the camera clearly benefit from being perceived as a sui generis thinking about the photographic sign.
