If this letter is a true copy, then it seethes of incumbency on the part of officials who headed #auroville for decades! Dr.Karan Singh probably should introspect as to why this failure occurred. This is no mythical story for Thor to use his hammer! #SaveAuroville #EMIT

About the Joys and Perversities of Reading – Fingerprint

19 hours ago — Arts & Humanities · Perversity 100% · Pleasure 80% · Enjoyment 25% · Jouissance 25% · Sri Aurobindo 17% · Metatext 17% · Escapist 16% · Aesthetic Pleasure - Reading is a peculiar kind of experience. Although its practice and theory have a very long tradition, the question of aesthetic pleasure is as perplexing as ever. Why do we read? What exactly thrills us in the text? One of the most prominent scholars having addressed these questions in the twentieth century is undeniably Roland Barthes, who distinguished between the «ordinary» pleasure of reading and bliss (jouissance), a delight so profound that it cannot be expressed in words. Taking his work as a central reference, and revisiting some of his seminal publications on the subject such as Empire of Signs (1970) and The Pleasure of the Text (1973), this collection of essays adopts a similar interdisciplinary approach to explore a broad range of themes and issues related to the notion of readerly enjoyment, between form and content, emotion and reason, escapist and knowledge-seeking responses to the text: how do literary and ideological pleasures intersect? In what ways do perversions, madness or even fatigue contribute to the pleasure of the text? How do writing and signs, sense and significance, but also image and text interact in the intermedial process of reading? How can paratexts – i.e. the margins of the text, including footnotes – and metatexts play a part in the reader’s enjoyment?
