Other title information: a trip to semiotics

Annotation: The newcomer to semiotics is the primary intended reader of this book. Each of the authors of the various branches of semiotics open this perspective to all who want to know about semiotics, as well as to those who want to add to their knowledge of semiotics. The topics cover the major areas of semiotics and the human sciences: linguistics, theater, psychology, religion, anthropology, history, law, graphics, music, media, poetics, architecture, and a capsule overview of Charles Sanders Peirce. The individual essays develop each specialist's approach to semiotics, with full bibliography for follow-through. The introductory chapter points out the unifying themes that tie the special topics together

Les Universaux en musique

edited by Costin Miereanu | Xavier Hascher

Music Publications de la Sorbonne 285944355X Available

View details

Other title information: Actes du quatrième Congrès international sur la signification musicale

Annotation: L'opportunité et la valeur des textes rassemblés ici se reconnaissent à l'universalité des grands thèmes abordés, à leur diversité cohérente, à l'écho qu'ils donnent aux circonstances musicales mondiales actuelles. Les problèmes de la signification musicale sont permanents à travers toute l'histoire de la création et de l'interprétation, en ce que la musique ne se donnerait qu'à elle-même signification. Cependant, la présence, aussi évidente qu'apparemment insaisissable, d'une pensée musicale intime au compositeur, interne à l'œuvre, demeure par là même une fascination de tout auditeur, mais aussi la gageure presque utopique de toute analyse. Ces problèmes sollicitent donc une recherche et une lutte constantes pour tenter de reconnaître ou du moins d'approcher cette signification, à la lumière des démarches et clartés nouvelles. La signification musicale appelle d'urgence notre attention et se pose des problèmes nouveaux, bien au-delà de ceux des analyses traditionnelles. On saisira qu'une telle mutation des données ait appelé une vision nouvelle des Universaux qui règnent sur l'essence même d'un art organiquement, consubstantiellement uni à la perception pure et à la Connaissance. Ouvrage publié avec le concours du Centre national du livre et de Poly-Art international.

Signs and Symbols

Culture Watson-Guptill Publications 0823048268 Available

Other title information: their design and meaning

Notes: Original title in German "Der Manch un seine Sachen" (1928), English translation by Andrew Bluhm

Annotation: Discusses the elements of a sign, and looks at pictograms, alphabets, calligraphy, monograms, text type, numerical signs, symbols, and trademarks. This is a compelling study of the nature of signs and how people communicate written by the distinguished typographer Adrian Frutiger; who has illustrated his text with over 2000 line drawings. He reproduces numerous aspects of graphic symbolism from the simplicity of the T-sign to the ornamentation of the Australian aboriginal painting, and comments on the full range of symbols even including modern trademarks and traffic signs. This is the distillation of Frutiger's life's work and compulsory reading for all those interested in graphics, design, art, ornament and communication in general.

Infinite Jest

David Foster Wallace

Literature Abacus 9780349121086 Available

View details

Annotation: A gargantuan, mind-altering comedy about the Pursuit of Happiness in America. Set in an addicts’ halfway house and a tennis academy, and featuring the most endearingly screwed-up family to come along in recent fiction, Infinite Jest explores essential questions about what entertainment is and why it has come to so dominate our lives; about how our desire for entertainment affects our need to connect with other people; and about what the pleasures we choose say about who we are. Equal parts philosophical quest and screwball comedy, Infinite Jest bends every rule of fiction without sacrificing for a moment its own entertainment value. It is an exuberant, uniquely American exploration of the passions that make us human – and one of those rare books that renew the idea of what a novel can do.
