Roland Gérard Barthes (born on 12 November 1915 in the town of Cherbourg in Normandy) was a French literary theorist, philosopher, linguist, critic, and semiotician. Barthes' ideas explored a diverse range of fields and he influenced the development of schools of theory including structuralism, semiotics, social theory, anthropology and post-structuralism.
Found this little gem at Fontanelle Forest's gift shop after renewing our membership and going for a hike. I should have bought this guide first and would have been able to name most of the wildflowers along the way! This book will come to good use at home and out and about. Neatly organized by color and with many great color photographs it is a wonderful addition to the library of anyone who enjoys to identify plants.
