Notes: Appendix: Three lectures by Juri Lotman

Annotation: This book looks afresh at the heritage of cultural semiotician Juri Lotman - the founder of the Tartu-Moscow school of semiotics. The author proceeds from the idea that 'intellect' is one of the central categories of Juri Lotman's semiotics. Intellect becomes an important concept in Lotman's heritage - starting with the series of lectures given by him in the autumn and winter of 1967 at the University of Tartu (the lectures are published for the first time as an appendix to the book).
