Myhtologies

Use two stories in the book ‘mythologies’ by Roland Barthes, translated by Annette Lavers, Operation Margarine and The Poor and the Proletariat. Need to show the established order instead of summary of his essay.

In the first paragraph of Operation Margarine Roland Barthes states that there is no lack of examples for ways that the Established Order, as he calls it, portrays its drawbacks in a paradoxical way to exalt itself. Your essay should seek to find a few examples that operate in this way.

Write your essay the way Barthes writes his, giving clear arguments for how the paradox of presenting a “drawback” in order to “exalt” whatever example you can think of functions.
