Intellectual Effort and Linguistic Work

Kristian Bankov

Dependent title
Semiotic and Hermeneutic Aspects of the Philosophy of Bergson

Linguistics International Semiotics Institute | Semiotic Society of Finland 9519865403 Available

View details

Annotation: Bergson discusses the questions of philosophic truth in a way that allows an interpretation in terms of contemporary semiotics and hermeneutics. In his famous "Philosophical intuition" he defines this kind of truth as "something simple, infinitely simple, so extraordinarily simple that the philosopher has never succeded in saying it". This dialectic between intuition and its 'saying' is examined as the hermeneutics of understanding and interpretation. At the same time, this study attempts to open new insights in Bergson's philosophy, and especially in his notion of Intellectual Effort. Kristian Bankov, in his essay, considers this concept not only central to Bergson's philosophy, but also a key to the sign-nature of our whole being and existence in the world.

Notes: translated by Alastair McEwen, originally published in 1997

Annotation: This volume expplores how advances in the field of cognitive science can be incorporated into the study of literary interpretation. The last two decades have seen the establishment of cognitive studies as a valuable interdisciplinary approach in the humanities and beyond, However, what it can- or could- offer to the practice of literary interpretation is not entirely clear. In this volume fourteen papers by scholars from three continents address this issue.

La Traduzione

edited by Susan Petrilli

General Semiotics Meltemi editore 8883530349 Available

View details

Annotation: This issue of Athanor is a collection of contributions by specialists from different disciplinary fields - semiotics, linguistics, literary criticism, philosophy, and biology - on the problems of translation. We can distinguish them on the basis of two orientations. One consists in limiting the question of translation to the realm of verbal language or, more specifically, to the relationship between historical-natural languages, or, again, to the more restricted realm of literary and poetic translation. The other, instead, aims to broaden the field of investigation to intersemiotic translation, between different non-verbal languages and even outside of human languages, to the point of including translations of a specifically biological nature that are the object of study of biosemiotics - such as for example, the three different types of translation in the nutritional system that constitute the difference between plants, animals and mushrooms - or the cyborg translation between organic and inorganic made possible by current technological development.

The body in language

Horst Ruthof

General Semiotics Cassell 0304338052 Available

View details

Annotation: Language is not merely verbal. Nonverbal signs and interpretations not only contribute to language, but in fact compose the structure of language itself. Horst Ruthrof delves into the nonverbal facets of language, such as olfactory, gustatory, aural, visual and tactile readings. Proposing reclamation of the body as an integral part of language, this book argues against structural linguistics and post-Saussurean theories. To support his standpoint, Ruthrof draws on the writings of Peirce, Husserl, Heidegger, Wittgenstein, Derrida, and Helen Keller, and on recent research in cognitive science, cognitive linguistics, and cognitive rhetoric.

Examining and developing the work of 'cognitive film semiotics', a neglected branch of film theory that combines the insights of congitive semiotics, he investigates Michel Colin's cognitive semantic theory of film; Francesco Casetti and Christian Metz' theories of film enunciation... etc.

Other title information: Modeling System Theory and Semiotic Analysis

Annotation: This book presents a methodological framework, developed from the field of biosemiotics, for studying semiotic phenomena as modeling processes. It presents a descriptive system for uniting semiotics and biology so that the "modeling instinct" can be studied in terms of its manifestations in various species. The book is written in an accessible textbook style, and can thus be used as a manual by both professional semioticians and students taking courses in semiotics, biology, and the communication sciences. It is composed in such a way that a broad readership can appreciate the fascinating research going on in a relatively unknown area of interdisciplinary study.
