Gaudin, both for its draconian discipline and for enabling each of its pupils to become different. I would like to thank Jerome Mandel and Meir Sternberg at Tel-Aviv University, for arranging for me to have the leave I needed, and Dorothea Krook-Gilead and the late Wylie Sypher for reading and commenting on portions of this manuscript. Special thanks are also due to Frances Arnold at the publishers for her wonderful tact, understanding and timely encouragement, and to Julie Coyne, Jane Gostling and the staff of the Brompton Library in London, who went well beyond the call of duty in locating and procuring books for me. I would like to thank the editors of Orbis Litterarum for permission to reprint my article, 'Critical Play: a Reading of Roland Barthes'. This book could not have been written without the constant help and support of my husband, Jacob Bannet, who lived with it from its inception with better than good grace, or without my two lively small sons, Jonathan and Alan, who helped by puncturing abstraction, making me laugh and allowing me to sleep - at least most nights.
