Annotation: The symbolic meaning imposes itself on me by a double determination: it is intentional (this is what the author meant) and it is taken from a sort of general, common lexicon of symbols: it is a meaning that goes to meet me. I propose to call this complete sign the obvious meaning. As for the other meaning, the third, the one that comes 'in excess', like a supplement that my intellect cannot quite absorb, at once stubborn and fleeting, smooth and eluding, I propose to call it 'the obtuse meaning.' --Roland Barthes

Ideology and Insanity
Thomas S. Szasz
- Dependent title
- Essays on the psychiatric dehumanization of man
Social Pelican Books 0140218262 Available
View details
Annotation: In the social and political conflicts that take place in any society, control of the weak by the strong is justified by the rhetoric appropriate to the prevailing ideology. The 20th century’s credo is Mental Health; and in its name those who deviate from accepted social norms are often victimized and dehumanized. The author of these fourteen essays is a psychoanalyst and teacher. Here, Dr. Thomas Szasz shows how, by encouraging us to wage war on the false front of mental illness, psychiatry too often serves as a convenient way of avoiding confrontations with moral conflicts and societal problems. And, he warns us, if we persist in defining the vicissitudes of life as mental illnesses, and psychiatric interventions as medical treatments, we court the hazards of political tyranny disguised as psychiatric therapy.

Soviet structural folkloristics

Notes: Vol. 1
Annotation: This book is one of the results of the team work done in the Centre for the Computerised and Semantic Analysis of Myth at the University of British Columbia. Our activity is threefold: (1) investigation, development, and test of theoretical and analytic models (2) elaboration of computer programs for the semantic analysis of myth; and (3) actual analyses of Northwest Pacific Indian and of Melanesian myths. Our search for operational models and testable hypotheses led us to the recent publications of some prominent Soviet colleagues. We found these contributions valuable enough to deserve translation. A subgroup – T. Popoff, S. Reid, G. Quijano, M. Layton, W. Jilek Aall and M. Calcowski – studied articles published in German, French, or Russian, translated them and tested the approaches. We are happy to make the results available to our fellow anthropologists, folklorists and semioticians in the hope that better and ever more rigorous approaches will continue to heighten the quality of the procedures in our related fields. - from the introduction

Other title information: A Study in the symbolism of reason, rite and art
Annotation: The central problem of this interesting book is to ascertain precisely the functions served by myth, ritual, and especially the arts, and to develop an adequate theory of artistic significance. Mrs. Langer's development of her theme within the framework of a general theory of symbolism, in accordance with her conviction that the coming period of creative philosophy will use the distinctions of symbolic analysis as its key concepts is the novel approach of this book.

General Semiotics Mouton Publishers 9027904502 Available

Annotation: More elaborately and self-consciously than anywhere in the West, Russian criticism has developed three major schools. One of these looks for the essence of literature in its philosophical and religious ideas: writers like Berdjaev, mainly interested in an interpretation of Dostoevskij, see literature as a way of knowing the absolute. A second school is the social: literature is not only a mirror of society but an incitement to social thought and action. In its Marxist version, social criticism has become the official Soviet creed and is thus felt today as peculiarly representative of Russian criticism. But a third school, that of Formalism, is so far much less known and much less accessible in the West. It arose around 1914 and was suppressed around 1930. Russian Formalism keeps the work of art itself in the center of attention: it sharply emphasizes the difference between literature and life, it rejects the usual biographical, psychological, and sociological explanations of literature.
