- 4: Each of us is a kinds of crossroads where things happen [Return to this
idea in Barthes] - 3: I never had, and still dont have the feeling of a personal identity - These are thoughts that also theorize differing notions of authorship: Myth and culture happen through the writer, even as the writer produces and the person thinks/ acts. Myths, as culture, operate at subconscious levels (?). Levi-Strauss implies that culture happens through us. [good to set up before/during city of glass week]
