From work to Text

This essay mainly talks about the view of the author. The theme - textual analysis from which we can find that the meaning must be created by the reader through a process of textual analysis. Thus a text must be open to analysis and allow different interpretations.

Over against the traditional notion of the work, for long -- and still -- conceived of in a, so to speak, Newtonian way, there is now the requirement of a new object, obtained by the sliding or overturning of former categories.
The author thinks traditional notion of work must be replaced by new Text.

the Text is that space where no language has a hold over any other, where languages circulate.
The text is the information which author wants to express, and language can only convey information for readers to interpret.

The Text is not a co-existence of meanings but a passage, an overcrossing.
The text is not a co-exsitence of meanings but a passage for readers to obtain own meanings and interpretations, an overcrossing which will never end.
