This research paper: A 3 page essay that discusses Roland Barthes's intriguing text S/Z, An Essay, which offers an intriguing and insightful view of precisely what occurs when someone "reads" a text, with the term "text" having a broader meaning that encompasses any communicated narrative, i.e., books, movies, TV, etc. Barthes's theory is contrasted with Textual Poachers, in which Henry Jenkins offers a reworking of Barthes's conceptualization of texts, specifically to the idea of the "writerly" text. While Jenkins is basically sympathetic of Barthes's theory, his interpretation of "reading" a text differs primarily in regards to how texts can be "reread." No additional sources cited.
