Other title information: vysokoškolské učebné texty
Annotation: University teaching texts provide students of the study program Culturology with a practically modeling entry, or rather an overview of artistic communication and interpretation, which will guide them through several examples of reception and communication practice. The recapitulation sequence documents the story of a specific 2022/2023 semester cycle, partly of a monothematic nature. They are united by the concretization of one model of artistic communication and interpretation (chapter no. 1 Teaching texts/instruction sheets on reception aesthetics). The starting point is reception aesthetics honed and conceptually profiled at the Institute of Literary and Artistic Communication of the Faculty of Arts of the University of Bratislava in Nitra, from which the texts of individual chapters are subsequently (referentially) created, embedded in the university pedagogical practice of the study of Culturology, and applied as a motif (chapter no. 2 Journeys of one semester cycle).

(Re)considering Roman Jakobson
- Edition
- 1 edition
View details
Annotation: This book was initiated by a graduate course of Elin Sütiste about semiotics of Roman Jakobson (1896–1982), given in the Department of Semiotics, University of Tartu. The contributions include articles by the doctoral students as well as co-lectures, visiting scholars and colleagues. These seminars affirmed that Jakobson was truly an ambitious, forward-thinking scholar who exerted himself to establish semiotics as a discipline. Though Jakobson identified himself as a philologist, he played a pivotal role in the development and institutionalization of semiotics. Jakobson’s ability to grasp the potential of new ideas and to inspire others was remarkable. Juri Lotman has commented that “Wherever his fate of a mid-20th-century man took him, everywhere Jakobson attracted a group of scientists that soon grew into a scientific centre of global importance”.

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. Vitale and Nayden Yotof.

Music and the Arts
- Edition
- 1 edition
View details
Other title information: Volume II
Annotation: Music, in some forms, declares itself autonomous and absolute. But semiotics has taught us that no sign system can function alone, isolated from other texts. Correspondences and interrelationships of arts have always been fertile soil from which musical meanings to grow. Thus, among the topics of these proceedings, one finds music and painting, ekphrasis, interpretation, semiotic theory of music, pragmatism, aesthetics, topics, narrativity, music and media, opera, cinema, literature, music history, hermeneutics, dance and music psychology. Musical Signification is a world-wide research project that tries to open new avenues for an innovative science of music as a meaningful practice throughout the ages.

Live Samba
- Dependent title
- Analysis and Interpretation of Brazilian Pagode
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.

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.
