Notes"Poststructuralism: A Very Short Introduction traces the key arguments that have led poststructuralists to challenge traditional theories of language and culture. What is language? Is there such thing as a private language? What is the relationship between language and knowledge? Poststructuralism is a response to structuralism, which is an intellectual movement arguing that human culture may be understood by means of a structure that differs from reality and abstract ideas. Poststructuralism names a theory, or a group of theories, concerning the relationship between human beings, the world, and the practice of making and reproducing meanings"
