Book excerpt: Although its original applications were in linguistic and anthropology, structuralism has also cut across sociology, history, philosophy, psychiatry, criticism, the comparative study of arts and letters, classical studies, and other disciplines in the humanities and social sciences. The present volume is a full record of the proceedings of an international symposium. Participating were many of the leading figure of the structuralist dialogue- Barthes, Derrida, Lacan, Goldman, and the late Jean Hyppolite - and thus the volume is a useful demonstration of the movement, its aims and methods.
