Pragmatism and the forms of sense

Robert E. Innis

General Semiotics Pensylvania State University Press 027102223X Available

View details

Other title information: language, perception, technics

Annotation: Making sense of the world around us is a process involving both semiotic and material mediation—the use of signs and sign systems (preeminently language) and various kinds of tools (technics). As we use them, we experience them subjectively as extensions of our bodily selves and objectively as instruments for accessing the world with which we interact. Emphasizing this bipolar nature of language and technics, understood as intertwined "forms of sense," Robert Innis studies the multiple ways in which they are rooted in and transform human perceptual structures in both their individual and social dimensions. The book foregrounds and is organized around the notion of "semiotic embodiment." Language and technics are viewed as "probes" upon which we rely, in which we are embodied, and that themselves embody and structure our primary modes of encountering the world. While making an important substantive contribution to present debates about the "biasing" of perception by language and technics, Innis also seeks to provide a methodological model of how complementary analytical resources from American pragmatist and various European traditions can be deployed fruitfully in the pursuit of new insights into the phenomenon of meaning-making.

Live Samba

Luiz Fernando Nascimento de Lima

Dependent title
Analysis and Interpretation of Brazilian Pagode

Music International Semiotics Institute 9519865497 Available

View details

Annotation: Live Samba takes as its main topic the pagode movement, which apperead in the 1980s as a re-invention of the samba tradition. Deeply grounded in the most idiosyncratic musical patterns of samba, pagode countered the hegemony of the samba-schools and their media appeal. Pagode, too, became a major commercial success. It appeared in a transitional period, at the moment the music industry was shifting its focus towards lowe classes of the population. As a result, pagode and other local-based styles led the way to a recoinfiguration of Brazilian music. The transitional nature of this moment is reflected in the ambivalent nature of tpagode meanings. Those meanings were firmly attached to the local sphere, while at the same time open to communocation with translocal levels. In Live Samba, the author analyses pagode as a practice comprising both musical traits and symbolic associations with other spheres of Brazilian culture. The book looks at pagode songs through the frames of the samba tradition, of Brazilian society, of the commodity environment, and of musical signification, and it provides an introductory survey of samba and of the Brazilian music indurstry.
