. LEVI-STRAUSS

- Born 28th, November 1908
- From Brussels, Belgium
- Born to French parents with Jewish background


Levi-Strauss looked at narrative structure in terms of Binary Opposition. Bnary Opposition are sets of oposite values which reveal the structre of media texts. An example can be villain and hero – we understand the cocept of a hero because the villiain’s actions are contrast to the good ations of the Hero (one cannot conceive of 'good' if we do not understand 'evil').
