9 Her gesture also recalls other problematic distinctions: namely, Jean-Jacques Thomas's discussion of the relationship between system and code, and Antoine Compagnon's denunciation of the split between literary institution and creation. "Happening on" suggestive coincidences while reading Camera Lucida and Freud's "A Case of Paranoia Running Counter to the Psychoanalytical Theory of the Disease," Lydon explores how the Barthes text resonates within the Freudian soundbox. " Her reading of the photograph of the mother as child in the Winter Garden (which she astutely renames the "conservatory") and of Freud's interpretation of his paranoid patient brings together a number of disparate elements: the abrupt click of the camera shutter, the throb of a desiring body, the ''snapping'' shut of the lid of the mother's poudrier (powder box), the formidable end-stops of Schumann's seventh Kreisleriana, and the spectral Mutterbild in the diminutive mirror in the compact case, the "luminous shadow" of the mother throughout Camera Lucida, and the hallucinatory power of Freud's patient triggered by her auditory delusion.
One way of enacting that lack is to abandon at the beginning of the intellectual story his own beginnings (in semiology) and to regress to an earlier stage (phenomenology, whose paradigm is apparently Sartre's L'Imaginaire) which had previously been the object of his critique. But phenomenology is still too scientific. Barthes would like to say that the eidos of the photograph is its singularity, but this is no eidos at all. How might one "do phenomenology" while retaining the singular and contingent?
At the end of such a series of questions we might be asking for a nuanced account of the ways in which Barthes is tempted by philosophy, fears it, desires it, tentatively tries on its robes, analyzes its signs and myths, or inscribes it by citation, parody, or temporary adoption of this or that "position" in his own texts. The project of assembling the questions and interrogating the texts is a large one; but I have suggested already that Barthes is not to be thought of simply as either inside or outside of philosophy.
