AUTHOR

Eco, Umberto

SUMMARY

In this collection of nine essays, Umberto Eco sets forth a dialectic between 'open' and 'closed' texts, between a work of art that actively involves the 'addressee' in its production and one that holds the 'addressee' at bay and seeks to evoke a limited and predetermined response. He investigates the contributions of contemporary semantics to the study of narrative, and connects the modalities of textual interpretation with the problem of possible worlds.Eco, Umberto is the author of 'Role of the Reader' with ISBN 9780253111395 and ISBN 0253111390.
