/lit/ - Literature

a couple questions to liven up the thread:
have you fellas done your homework on barthes (myth), lefebvre (critique of everyday life), veblen (conspicuous consumption) and obviously debord (spectacle)? how did it enrinch your understanding of his work?
what about his more obscure references to authors and artists like david nebreda (photographer) and macedonio fernandez (author, influence on borges)? have you checked their work?
there recently was an exhition in china of baudrillard's photos*, do you guys know much about them and baudrillard's relationship with photography? other than his own photographs he contributed with an afterword (please follow me) to a photobook by sophie calle (suite venitienne) right before he took up photography himself. i'd recommend you look them up if you want to learn where baudrillard came from as a photographer
