This article explores the concept of utopia in philosopher Roland Barthes' writing. According to Barthes, a fantasy does not tell everything and can give rise to an affirmative repetition. He reconfigures utopia as domestic and the social space he constructs will be idiorrhythmic. In "Barthes and Utopia: Space, Travel, Writing," Diana Knight claims that utopia in Barthes refers to the details of everyday life and to a certain mode of corporeal and spatial being.
