The pursuit of signs

- Edition

View details
Other title information: Augmented edition with a new preface
Annotation: The primary task of literary theory, Jonathan Culler asserts in the new edition of his classic in this field, is not to illuminate individual literary works but to explain the system of literary signification - the rules and conventions that determine a reader's understanding of a text and that make literary communication possible. In this wide-ranging book, he investigates the possibilities of a semiotics of literature.

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.

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.

Estrategias globales
View details
Other title information: Publicidad, marcas y semiocapitalismo
Annotation: deSignis once again places the problem of branding and advertising on the stratospheric stage within the framework of global strategies in post-industrial societies. Many authors have deeply appreciated the importance of objects and value systems that come into play in consumer society. As has been repeatedly pointed out, the commodity has a semiotic component since the exchange of goods has numerous concomitances with the exchange of messages, an idea that was present in Marx, also in Saussire and explicitly raised in the classic texts of Baudrillard and Rossi-Landi.

Introducere in filosofia creatiei umane
- Edition
- 2 edition
View details
Annotation: The message of the present volume could be summed up by paraphrasing a well-known sentence by Andre Malraux: The 21st century will be creative or it won't be! Under the sign of this forecast, the author builds his plea for a philosophy of human creation, researching in an original, integrative way, the main dimensions of the creative endeavour. Who and for whom, how and with what result, when and for what purpose is it created? Here are the questions that are answered philosophically, in order to be able to shape that optimal situation of "creative communication" that the future expects from the present.

Les Universaux en musique
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.
