Sociocultural crossings and borders
View details
Other title information: musical microhistories
Annotation: In the current global world the interaction between cultures penetrates into musical practices and discourses, radically affecting the sociocultural imagination and altering the established shapes of cultural territories. Yet the history of music demonstrates that the dynamics of cultural encounters and segregations has always been a key factor in the formation of individual and collective identities and in the understanding of other cultures. Cultural expansions and, conversely, the trajectories of displacement of cultural expression are to a varied extent affected by the political, economic, technological and other dimensions of dissemination of musical practices and traditions. In the modern age, the extramusical factors are of equal significance to textual (creation) and contextual (dissemination and reception) configurations of sociocultural interactions. The understanding of sociocultural interactions and borders plays an important role in the appropriation of the musical past and the revival of cultural memory.

Greimas close and far
View details
Parallel title: Parallel title: Greimas arti ir toli
Annotation: Algirdas Julien Greimas (born Algirdas Julius Greimas) is one the most prominent creators of semiotics who laid the foundations of the Paris School of Semiotics known all over the world. He was also a famous linguist who researched Lithuanian mythology. Algirdas Julien Greimas is one of the most prominent Lithuanians in the international world of science, in many aspects compared to Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis. The greatest influence on the life and works of Greimas came from French culture renowned for its science, literature and art. Nevertheless, the time spent in Lithuania was also significant. Greimas himself viewed Lithuanian and western (French) periods of his life as correlation between two cultures. Therefore, every moment of his life is important to us, each moment contributing to the whole picture and enriching his life. Neither Greimas' childhood nor his youth which is the genesis of intellectual and aesthetic signs is reviewed in literature. Various authors tend to start writing Greimas'biography starting from his years in Vytautas Magnus University. Professor Eero Tarasti, the president of the International Association for Semiotic Studies, offered me to prepare a work about Greimas' life in Lithuania. As I myself studied in Kupiškis and knew a lot of things about the Greimas family, I decided to look at Greimas'childhood period in Kupiškis. The sources I used in this work are as follows: Greimas' words about his childhood, national and personal archives, press of those days and stories told by those who knew the Greimas family.My experience with exceptionally gifted children in National M. K. Čiurlionis School of Art in Vilnius and consulting with famous scientist has helped me to discuss the genesis of intellectual and aesthetic signs in Greimas' biography. As for the form of the work, I have chosen to use the form of an exposition with elements of a poster presentation, which allowed me to participate in significant scientific forums in France, Finland, Russia and China. In Lithuania, in those places where Greimas lived, my exposition contributed to the studies of his biography, organisation of conferences and dedication to Greimas. As it turned out, the prestigious gymnasiums where Greimas studied in Šiauliai and Marijampolė established in 1851 and 1867 have raised about half (9 out of 20) of those who signed the Act of Independence of Lithuania on 16 February 1918 and 12 out of 100 most outstanding persons in Lithuania in a millennium. In this respect these two gymnasiums are the only ones in Lithuania. It should also be mentioned that Greimas attended lectures in Vytautas Magnus University by famous Lithuanian scientists Mykolas Romeris, Vladas Jurgutis, Vosylius Sezemanas and Jonas Bučas who later contributed to laying the foundation for the science of semiotics.

Lectures on the Epistemology of Semiotics
- Edition
- 1 edition
View details
Annotation: This book presents a functional view of semiotics considering language as a system of signs. In such a means- and ends-oriented perspective, the signs as meaning-bearers are detached, both in concrete and mental existence modes, from their meanings or objects of reference. Some relevant words on the genesis of the author’s contribution to the development of semiotic thought will also include his indebtedness to his preceptors, teachers, friends and colleagues. Preliminary outlines for their foundation have been developed since the late 197os and 1980s in the Department of General Linguistics at Wrocław. Subsequent work on the following theme continued in the Institute of English Philology at Opole and in the School of English at Poznań, over the last five years, has contributed to its present state.

Mathematics as a Modeling System
- Edition

Other title information: a Semiotic Approach
Notes: Editors of the series: Kalevi Kull, Silvi Salupere, Peeter Torop
Annotation: Mathematics and semiotics share many intellectual features and interests, from the study of how representations stand for specific kinds of referents to philosophical considerations of how these interrelate with reality. Nonetheless, in-depth studies of this intrinsic relation between the two have rarely been undertaken, with a few notable exceptions (as will be discussed in the book). Especially relevant to the study of the nature of mathematics is the concept of model – a term and notion that is used widely in both disciplines. However, to the best of our knowledge the theory of models in semiotics, known as Modeling Systems Theory, has rarely, if ever, been applied to the study of mathematical modeling. The purpose of this book is to do exactly that since it is our view that mathematics is a de facto modelling system in the semiotic sense and it is our hope that from this it will be possible to gain considerable insights into how mathematics works and achieves the discoveries and forms of knowledge that it has since the dawn of antiquity. Hopefully, this will allow both mathematicians and semioticians to pursue similar or analogous research objectives with regard to understanding the biological and cognitive etiology of sign systems and their connection to reality.

Philosophies of Performance
View details
Annotation: In the years 2008-2009 The Finnish Academy of Sciences funded a research project entitled PHILOSOPHIES OF PERFORMANCE - Finnish music, art and avant-garde. The project focused on temporal, i.e. performing arts, their background philosophies and signifying processes. The empirical material was mostly about Finnish art. Yet, the idea was to develop also "universal" theoretical models relevant to other traditions and fields. Music served as the core phenomenon but it was also scrutinised in its intertextual connections. This anthology offers some results but also contributions from other scholars whom the project stimulated. The authors are Aurea Dominiguez, Joan Grimalt, Sergio Lanza, Otto Lehto, Grisell Macdonel Dario Martinelli, Bogumila Mika, Lina Navickaté-Martinelli, Pärttyli Rinne, Filip Sikorski, Eero Tarasti, Juha Torvinen, Alessia R.

Semiotic models of legal argumentation

Annotation: The present doctoral dissertation is an exercise in exposition, comparison, criticism and construction, and this is the result of a project conceived ten years ago. We have taken different traditions of legal reasoning, and by juxtaposing them have sought to clarify and assess semiotic presuppositions, in order to outline a theoretical framework of legal semiotics that would help to lay the foundations for semiotic theory of legal argumentation. These semiotic presuppositions have been the object of our study at the University of Tartu since our bachelor's thesis (defended in 2001) and master's thesis (defended in 2006). Our interest in legal semiotics was motivated by a very strong sense of dissatisfaction with the traditional methods and paradigms of contemporary jurisprudence, especially with those ones of legal argumentation. Traditional jurisprudence committed to a model of legal unity, does not for the most part seeks to describe how the views of legal actors interact with the views of other legal actors/participants of legal discourse in real situations of legal communication. Thus, it was the consideration of legal communication as a semiotic activity that caused us to doubt that law could be conceived in terms of traditional legal concepts. Legal semiotics can be regarded as a major advance because it debunks the prevailing assumptions about the nature of legal reasoning and replaces them with what seems a far superior explanation. The main scientific objectives of this dissertation can be briefly formulated as follows: 1) to develop a conceptual framework for practical handling of complex problems of legal argumentation as they occur in the stages of legal communication; 2) to assess issues of compatibility/conflict between existing methods of legal reasoning and our semiotic model of legal reasoning; 3) to bridge the compatible aspects of different theories/models of legal argumentation to establish a generalizable model of legal argumentation.

Other title information: A Second Revolution Might Save America From Herself
Annotation: In the most dynamic and prosperous country on Earth-the USA-stupidity overshadows the intellectual and technical accomplishments that other nations envy. If Americans continue to delude themselves about their country, the USA will end up like the USSR: imploding from within. This work analyzes the systemic aspects of America's current condition: across-the-board-dumbing down through media and in education; growing dependence on and demand for entitlements; corruption in the private and political domains; chronic cronyism; the opportunistic engineering of reality. Consequently, individual and collective stupidity not only leads to crises, it renders the USA impotent in dealing with the challenges of the fast dynamics characteristic of our time of post-industrial capitalism oriented towards consumption. The causes for this state of stupidity are examined: the people's willful ignorance of the nation's true history and development; an economic system that does not foster a sense of citizenry; cultivated mediocrity in education and entertainment; corruption of justice; rampant consumerism; a state of prosperity that lulls the people into complacency. Taking the rewards of change for granted, Americans no longer understand what change entails. Gazing into the rear-view mirror of history in search of answers, they forget that the USA was founded in a world more similar to the 1st century than the 21st. Americans will have to start fighting their own stupidity instead of further exhausting the country's (and the world's) resources in wars and entitlement measures. America has to "reset" herself, within an authentic democratic process, on a foundation appropriate to the integrated world of the global information age.

Other title information: Essays on the Art-Science of Tarot
Notes: a printed version
Annotation: Semetsky’s new book offers a bracing account of Tarot semiotics in view of its deep significance for educational experience. Analyzing the symbolic language of Tarot images that express the intimations of the unconscious, she invites readers to explore novel ways of learning about the nature of ourselves and the world we are situated in. Combining thorough research with an accessible style, this groundbreaking book is essential reading for present and future generations of practitioners, academics and students across disciplines. Pia Brînzeu, Professor of English Literature and Vice-Rector of the Universityof Timis¸oara, Romania; author of Corridors of Mirrors. A sequel to the author’s Re-Symbolization of the Self: Human Development and Tarot Hermeneutic and Semiotics Education Experience, Semetsky’s new book presents the Tarot sign-system as a school of ethical living. Bringing the philosophies of Peirce, Deleuze, Dewey, Whitehead and Gebser in a dialogue with the cutting-edge science of coordination dynamics, she grounds the art of Tarot in the logic of signs acting across nature, culture and human mind. Building on Noddings’ “maternal factor”, Semetsky demonstrates how the lessons embodied in Tarot symbolism recover the feminine value of relations and contribute to Self~Other integration. Such is the message of Tarot images. The Image is the Message. Igor Klyukanov, Professor of Communication, Eastern Washington University, USA; editor, Russian Journal of Communication; author of A Communication Universe: Manifestations of Meaning, Stagings of Significance. Semetsky’s amalgamation of the techniques of visual communication with the emerging field of edusemiotics is an absolute masterpiece in transdisciplinarity. By forging diverse strands of inquiry into an overall model of how images enhance learning, Semetsky’s new book provokes us to take a fresh look at iconic information and is a required reading for everyone who is engaged with the artand science of visual semiotics at the intersection of nature and culture. Marcel Danesi, Professor of Anthropology, University of Toronto, Canada; editor-in-chief, Semiotica; author of The Quest for Meaning: A Guide to Semiotic Theory and Practice. Finally. An in-depth look at Tarot from within the field of semiotics, a perspective that had been inexplicably overlooked until now. As a language of exile from language, Tarot cards are silent words that became images. Here is a book that turns our thirst for symbols into a learning tool. The sign sings in Inna Semetsky’s work.

Other title information: George Herbert’s Poetry as Cognitive Behaviour
Annotation: This book provides a cognitive analysis of the poetry of George Herbert (1593- 1633). From Herbert’s own thinking, recorded in his prose treatises, can be deduced that his poems should serve a specific function: teaching self-knowledge to his readers. Self-knowledge is a necessary skill, to be applied in one’s strife for ‘temperance’: the regulation of body, house, church, mind, and community. To Herbert, the meaning of his poems is subservient to this function: poetry should aid his readers to temper their lives. The cognitive framework applied here can serve to explain this function. Following Merlin Donald’s theory of cognitive evolution, art serves the purpose of mimetic meta-cognition: a specific cognitive strategy at the disposal of a county priest. Moreover, a cognitive framework can serve to explain why the Herbert-tradition has paid so little attention to this artistic function; this tradition operates within specific confines, the same confines that Herbert sought to compensate with his poetry and his thinking.

Jakobsonova sémiotická teorie
- Edition
- 1 edition
View details
Notes: Two of the books in this collection are inherited from Ludmila Lackova
Annotation: In my thesis I present some critical commentary on the semiotic theory of Roman Jakobson. This theory I view as an effort to establish, consolidate and widen of the nomothetic principle by using semiotic terms. In my view, to describe the basis of Jakobson?s semiotic theory means to describe the basic characteristics of his use of the terms sign, code and communication. With reference to the work of Thomas Kuhn, Nelson Goodman and François Rastier I introduce three semiotic frames, i.e. the general descriptions of meaning from semiotic/sign perspective. These frames I see as a mechanism of privileging certain kinds of question with certain privileged terms, i.e. sign, code and communication are seen as models that highlight speci%c problematic areas and simultaneously relegate others. I try to locate Roman Jakobson?s theory in these frames with emphasis on the model and de%nition of sign. The concept of sign as a complex signum or combination of its components is highlighted or distorted to suit the preferences of a particular frame. The result of this work is the description of the Jakobson?s conceptual relations between semiotic terms as the consequences of attempts to establish nomothetical approach across the semiotic frames.

Książka Krzysztofa Droby to odczytywanie na nowo samego Mieczysława Tomaszewskiego. Rozmowa dotyka nie tylko tematów zawodowych, ale także przybiera charakter osobistych wyznań.„Mieczysław Tomaszewski jest niezaprzeczalnym autorytetem w środowisku, znanym z wystąpień na kongresach, sympozjach, seminariach, z wykładów na wielu polskich uczelniach, z działań edytorskich, z wieloletniej aktywności jako genialny szerzyciel kultury (określenie Marii Dąbrowskiej sprzed 60 lat!) i wreszcie, last but not least, ze swego imponującego dorobku naukowego w postaci książek. W każdej z tych domen ujawnia oryginalną, wyrazistą osobowość. Ale mało jest świadectw i nie tak wielu świadków jego prywatności. W naszych rozmowach chodziło więc o utrwalenie właśnie tego osobistego, prywatnego tonu. Tonu jedynego, tak jak jedyną w swoim rodzaju jest droga Profesora przez życie."

On Musical Self-Similarity
- Dependent title
- intersemiosis as synecdoche and analogy
View details
Annotation: In this study, Gabriel Pareyon presents a theory of musical meaning formation in the context of intersemiosis, that is, the translation of meaning from one cognitive domain to another cognitive domain (e.g. from mathematics to music, or to speech or graphic forms). From this perspective, the degree of coherence of a musical systems relies on a synecdochic intersemiosis: a system of related signs within other comparable and correlated systems. The author analyzes the modalities of such correlations, exploring their general and particular traits, and their operational bounds. Accordingly, the notion analofy is used as a rich concept through its two definitions quoted by the classical literature - proportion and paradigm, enormously valuable in establishinf mesurement, likeness and affinity criteria. At the same time, original arguments by Benoit B. Mandelbrot (1924-2010) are revised, alongside a systematic critique of the literature on the subject. In fact, connecting Charles S. Peirce!s synechism with Mandelbrot's fractality is on of the main developnets of the presents study.

Russian Formalist Criticism
View details
Other title information: Four essays
Annotation: College English Russian formalists emerged from the Russian Revolution with ideas about the independence of literature. They enjoyed that independence until Stalin shut them down. By then they had produced essays that remain among the best defenses ever written for both literature and its theory. Included here are four essays representing key points in the formalists' short history. Victor Scklovsky's pathbreaking "Art as Technique" (1917) vindicates disorder in literary style. His 1921 essay on Tristram Shandy makes that eccentric novel the centerpiece for a theory of narrative. A section from Tomashevsky's "Thematics" (1925) inventories the elements of stories. In "The Theory of the 'Formal Method'" (1927) Boris Eichenbaum defends Russian formalism from many attacks. An able champion, he describes formalism's evolution, notes its major workers and works, clears away decayed axioms, and rescues literature from "primitive historicism" and other dangers. These essays set a course for literary studies that led to Prague structuralism, French semiotics, and postmodern poetics. Russian Formalist Criticism has been honored as a Choice Outstanding Academic Book of the Year by the American Library Association.

Symbol i Muzyka
View details
Annotation: This book is an entry into the symbolicism of music. The book consists of three chapters. In the first, I deal with the concept of the symbol itself. I discuss its genesis, history changing understanding, and above all - it's functioning in contemporary thought in such fields as sociology, cultural anthropology, semiotics or semiology, philosophy, psychoanalysis, and musicology. In the second chapter I present the problem of symbol and meaning in European music in a historical outline. The third chapter is my analysis of musical interpretations.

The space of culture
View details
Other title information: the place of nature in Estonia and beyond
Annotation: This volume sets out to construct a tentative bridge between the physical and perceived (academic) worlds, between the understandings of culture and nature, their spatiality and temporality by tackling the spatiality of culture phenomena across disciplinary boundaries. The contributions are arranged around a general question of how humans organise the spaces in which they live. The book is divided according to three themes: the humanities and ecosemiotic approach to nature, constructing nature, and examining environmental and landscape change. The first provides an historical review of the humanities and expands on the more theoretical themes. The second section discusses some ways in constructing (wild) nature with specific examples. The final one illustrates the changes that various cultures have brought about in the environment examining landscapes and domestication. The space of culture and the place of nature in various cultures are discussed critically throughout the volume in a way that challenges their ontological separations and invites to discuss culture-nature relationships on a more balanced basis
