Kristeva's first book gathers the essays she wrote in Paris from 1966 onward and sets out 'semanalysis', a critical science of signification that approaches the text as a productive practice rather than as a closed, finished structure. Its essay on Bakhtin, on the word, dialogue and the novel, first printed in Critique in 1967, introduced intertextuality: any text is put together as a mosaic of quotations and is the absorption and transformation of other texts. Selections from the book later appeared in English in Desire in Language (1980).
