Mythologies, written by Roland Barthes in 1957, is a collection of essays that explores the semiotics of everyday life in contemporary society. Barthes, a prominent French literary theorist and philosopher, delves into how myths are constructed and perpetuated through culture, examining everything from advertisements to professional wrestling. Barthes' work laid the foundation for semiotic analysis and has had a profound influence on cultural studies and literary theory. He was particularly interested in how bourgeois society uses myths to impose its values and beliefs.
