Theories-1

Date: 13th September 2011
Roland Barthes

Roland Barthes suggested that the narrative works with five different codes

These codes are there to help the reader make sense of what's happening

His enigma code works to set up puzzles which needs to be solved

Barthes’ code is very relevant to soaps as the situations always make us wonder what will happen in the upcoming episode.
