B

C

D

Strangers to ourselves- Julia Kristeva

Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option B

Madness and civilization- Roland Barthes

Solution :

The correct option is Madness and civilization- Roland Barthes.

To determine which pairing is incorrect, we can verify the authorship of each work:
Criticism in the Wilderness: This work of literary criticism was written by Geoffrey Hartman (published in 1980), making this pair correct.
Poetry and Repression: This book was written by the literary theorist Harold Bloom (published in 1976), making this pair correct.
Strangers to Ourselves: This psychoanalytic study was written by Julia Kristeva (published in 1988), making this pair correct.

Madness and Civilization (originally published in 1961 as Histoire de la folie à l'âge classique) was written by the French philosopher Michel Foucault, not the structuralist critic Roland Barthes. Because Barthes did not write this book, this is the incorrectly paired option.
