The word passion becomes, presumably, the reason for its error since its evaluation is not exempt, it is an investigation conducted excessively based on what the photograph does to him. He himself acknowledges that "subjectivity reduced to his hedonistic project could not recognize the Universal". In an initial approach, which the author describes as failing at the end of the first part of the book, he makes a merely personal and, I would say, passionate reflection on the subject. Roland Barthes approaches the subject of photography, not through an identification of its different manifestations - the vulgar portrait or landscape characterization, professional or amateur - but rather analyzing the photograph as a whole, designing a method of classification of it, in order to define its essence.
