Who among the following is NOT a Yale critic?

The correct option is Roland Barthes.

The "Yale critics" refers to a highly influential group of literary theorists and critics who taught at Yale University in the 1970s and 1980s. This group was known for introducing and developing the concept of deconstruction in literary analysis, heavily inspired by the work of the French philosopher Jacques Derrida.
The prominent members of the Yale School of criticism included:
• Geoffrey Hartman
• Paul de Man
• J. Hillis Miller
• Harold Bloom

Roland Barthes was a French literary theorist, philosopher, and semiotician who lived and worked in France (associated with institutions like the Collège de France). Although his structuralist and post-structuralist work influenced deconstructive thought globally, he was never a member of the academic circle at Yale University and is therefore not classified as a Yale critic.
