| | Structuralism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Structuralism rejected the concept of human freedom and choice and focused instead on the way that human behavior is determined by various structures. | | | In literary theory structuralism is an approach to analysing the narrative material by examining the underlying invariant structure. | | | Structuralism is a general approach in various academic disciplines that explores the interrelationships between fundamental elements of some kind, upon which some higher mental, linguistic, social, cultural etc "structures" are built, through which then meaning is produced within a particular person, system, culture. |

| | Where structuralism becomes useful is in organizing large bodies of material, such as the kinship systems that Levi-Strauss initially studied or the mythologies that occupied him later. | | | He repeatedly contrasts structural anthropology with the work of "functionalists" while relying on two linguistic authorities, Roman Jakobson and Nicolas Troubetzkoy, who are functionalists as far as many linguists are concerned. | | | When structural analysis is not carried through methodically, specific interpretations can be dismissed with nothing to replace them but arbitrary claims. |

| | Much of the study of post-structuralism is based on the common critiques of structuralism. | | | Re-evaluation of the structuralist interpretation of Ferdinand de Saussure's distinction between the historical (diachronic) and the descriptive (synchronic) views is the most that can be credited as a common point of critique which generally led post-structuralists to assert that structural analyses are generally synchronic and thereby suppress historical or diachronic analyses. | | | Contemporary trends in usage seem to employ the term less; rather than attempting to engage with a specific scholarship (as there is no unified post-structuralist position with which to engage). |

| | Structuralism is an intellectual movement which bases it analysis on the reduction of materials into models referred to as structures. | | | Structuralism, however, is not a unified school or methodology; Lévi-Strauss does not have a monopoly on structural studies in anthropology or other disciplines. | | | The most difficult aspect of structuralism is that these structures are not based on concrete or physical phenomena as they are in biological or other sciences but based on cultural realities such kinship organization or tales. |

| | From the point of view of structuralism all texts, all meaningful events and all signifying practices can be analysed for their underlying structures. | | | Structural analysis, however, as it was first set up, aimed to do this while remaining unaffected by social and/or cultural systems themselves. | | | The earliest scholars working in the idiom of structuralism proceeded from the premise that all kinds of cultural activity could be analysed objectively on the model of the empirical sciences. |

| | Structuralism introduces the idea of the 'subject', as opposed to the idea of the individual as a stable indivisible ego. | | | Structuralism is oriented toward the reader insofar as it says that the reader constructs literature, that is, reads the text with certain conventions and expectations in mind. | | | Structuralism underlines the importance of genre, i.e., basic rules as to how subjects are approached, about conventions of reading for theme, level of seriousness, significance of language use, and so forth. |

| | Even though structuralism prioritized spatial relations at the expense of historical analysis, creating an environment that would seem to favor a reexamination of cartographic techniques, geographers at first failed to structuralize their discipline. | | | But there was a discipline-specific reason for this: geography in the sixties had continued to be defined as a science of the relationship between nature and culture, between the elements of geomorphology and climatology and those belonging to the human valorization of natural conditions. | | | Indeed, no longer content to measure its progress within specific disciplines, with Althusser structuralism broadened its horizons "to include a structuralist philosophy that presented itself as such, and as the expression of the end of philosophy, the possibility of reaching beyond philosophy in the name of theory" (I: 295-6). |

| | Post Structuralism by Roger Jones |
| | In the study of language, the structural linguistics of Ferdinand de Saussure (1857-1913) suggested that meaning was to be found within the structure of a whole language rather than in the analysis of individual words. | | | Psychoanalysts attempted to describe the structure of the psyche in terms of an unconscious. | | | For the structuralist the individual is shaped by sociological, psychological and linguistic structures over which he/she has no control, but which could be uncovered by using their methods of investigation. |

| | Many qualitatively different structures overlay each other and interact with each other in the existence of all things - chemical, economic, social, etc. The concept of structure emphasises the aspect of Form which is stable and abstracts from the Content or materiality of things and from the inner contradictions and dynamics of a system. | | | Structure is also often contrasted with Function, where interconnected processes rather than things are emphasised, and Structuralism. | | | Materialism differs from structuralism by recognising the necessary interconnection between the multiplicity of interconnected structural forms within any complex and the need to study the development of structures in relation to underlying social developments. |

| | Some Post-Structuralist Assumptions |
| | structuralism presupposes the traditional and metaphysical notion of harmony and unity; a work is only a work, i.e. | | | structural analysis is therefore the discovery of the rationality or 'secret coherence' of a text. | | | structuralism assumes that a work has intrinsic meaning -- that is, it is 'already there' and always there, that the 'meaning' pre-exists its realization (it is already there -- we just identify it). |

| | So structuralism sees itself as a science of humankind, and works to uncover all the structures that underlie all the things that humans do, think, perceive, and feel--in mathematics, biology, linguistics, religion, psychology, and literature, to name just a few disciplines that use structuralist analyses. | | | Structuralists believe that the underlying structures which organize units and rules into meaningful systems are generated by the human mind itself, and not by sense perception. | | | Like all structuralists, he focuses on a SYNCHRONIC analysis of language as a system or structure, meaning that he examines it only in the present moment, without regard to what its past history is, or what its future may be. |

| | In structuralism, the subject is decentred, in other words the central focus on the individual in much social analysis is replaced by focus on the structures, of which the individual is just another element (see the section on the decentred self). | | | Ultimately, since in structuralism subject and structure are closely intertwined, an attack on structure must also entail an attack on the notion of the subject. | | | More serious, though perhaps more academic, is the charge that semiotics was on a hiding to nothing in the first place, since structuralism and post-structuralism derive from a fundamental misunderstanding of the relationship between the specialized study of linguistics and the more general philosophical conclusions which could (or could not) legitimately be drawn from it. |

Removing each from its diachronic relations with other mythemes in a single myth (such as the myth of Oedipus and his mother), he vertically aligned those mythemes that he found to be homologous (structurally correspondent). |
