Intellectual Effort and Linguistic Work
- Dependent title
- Semiotic and Hermeneutic Aspects of the Philosophy of Bergson
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.

Other title information: essays on language and cognition
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
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
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.

The Forms of Meaning
View details
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.

The Perception of the Environment
View details
Other title information: Essays in livelihood, dwelling and skill
Annotation: In this work Tim Ingold offers a persuasive new approach to understanding how human beings perceive their surroundings. He argues that what we are used to calling cultural variation consists, in the first place, of variations in skill. Neither innate nor acquired, skills are grown, incorporated into the human organism through practice and training in an environment. They are thus as much biological as cultural. To account for the generation of skills we have therefore to understand the dynamics of development. And this in turn calls for an ecological approach that situates practitioners in the context of an active engagement with the constituents of their surroundings. The twenty-three essays comprising this book focus in turn on the procurement of livelihood, on what it means to ‘dwell’, and on the nature of skill, weaving together approaches from social anthropology, ecological psychology, developmental biology and phenomenology in a way that has never been attempted before. The book is set to revolutionise the way we think about what is ‘biological’ and ‘cultural’ in humans, about evolution and history, and indeed about what it means for human beings – at once organisms and persons – to inhabit an environment. The Perception of the Environment will be essential reading not only for anthropologists but also for biologists, psychologists, archaeologists, geographers and philosophers.
