%0 Journal Article %A Buettner, Urs %T Talking about the weather : Roland Barthes on climate, everydayness, the feeling of being, and poetics %D 2020 %@ 2171-9594 %U http://hdl.handle.net/10017/42649 %X The paper reads Rolands Barthes’ considerations on weather and climate in his last lecture cycle “La Préparation du Roman” by contextualizing its brief remarks with his previous discussions on this topic. Barthes develops a phenomenological concept of climate, showing how experiences of place across the seasons shape certain habits. These manifest in expectations, perceptions, daily routines, and language. However, his particular interest is devoted to the question of how an existential experience of weather in its contingency can be regained. Furthermore, he investigates how poetry tries to capture the uniqueness and singularity of respective weather appearances against the patterns and narratives of the climate sedimented in the language system. %K Roland Barthes %K Gilles Deleuze %K Roman Jakobson %K Weather %K Climate %K Language %K Habits %K Everyday life %K Body %K Mood %K Perception of time %K City versus country %K Haiku %K Poetics %K Tiempo %K Clima %K Idioma %K Hábitos %K Vida cotidiana %K Cuerpo %K Humor %K Percepción del tiempo %K Ciudad versus campo %K Poética %K Literatura %K Literature %K Medio ambiente %K Environmental science %~ Biblioteca Universidad de Alcala
