Mapping Musical Signification
- Edition
- 1 edition
View details
Annotation: This book is a unique attempt to systematize the latest research on all that music connotes. Musicological reflections on musically expressive content have been pursued for some decades now, in spite of the formalist prejudices that can still hindermusicians and music lovers. The author organizes this body of research so that both professionals and everyday listeners can benefit from it – in plain English, but without giving up the level of depth required by the subject matter. Two criteria have guided his choice among the many ways to speak about musical meaning: its relevance to performance, and its suitability to the teaching context. The legacy of the so-called art music, without an interpretive approach that links ancient traditions to our present, runs the risk of missing the link to the new generations of musicians and listeners. Complementing the theoretical, systematic content, each chapter includes a wealth of examples, including the so-called popular music.

Philosophy of Education in the Semiotics of Charles Peirce
- Edition
- 1 edition
View details
Other title information: A Cosmology of Learning and Loving
Annotation: This book investigates the philosophy of education implicit in the semiotics of Charles Peirce. It is commonly accepted that the acts of learning and teaching imply affection of some sort, and Charles Peirce’s evolutionary semiotics thoroughly explains learning as an act of love. According to Peirce, we evolved to learn and to love; learning from other people has proved to be one of the best ways to carry out our infinite pursuit of truth, since love is the very characteristic of truth. As such, the teacher and the student practise love in their relation with one another. Grounded within an edusemiotics framework and also exploring the iconic turn in semiotics and recent developments in biosemiotics, this is the first book-length study of Peirce’s contribution to the philosophy of education.

Homo Homini Lupus?
View details
Other title information: spre o semiotică a discursului politic
Annotation: "Homo homini lupus", the famous line of Plautus, univocally interpreted by philosophers such as Bacon, Hobbes, Hume and others, still suggests that man is the only "animal" that attacks his fellow man for reasons other than instinctive ones. At the same time, however, the greed that turns some people into beasts seems to be balanced by opposite attitudes, synthesised by Seneca in the principle "Homo res sacra homini". Between these extremes marked by tears and love, the entire tense history of the human being unfolded. "Quo vadis, homine?", this is the question to which, in order to extinguish potential tensions, the politician owes him an answer, valuing the science of reading the signs that foreshadow the future...

De la întuneric la lumină

Other title information: semiotica iesirii din păcatul originar
Annotation: To outline a semiotics of the original sin of falling into the temptation of lying, disobedience and betrayal, a sin whose signs still disturb the life of the human being, is the primary goal of this book. To come out of the darkness of error, to enter the light of the meaning found through the image and likeness of the Primordial Truth, is defined as an aspiration following a trial given with joy to all who are open to wisdom and love.

Other title information: An integrative approach to human archetypal roots
Annotation: Inside the pages of this book we have holographically integrated the human world genesis by "WORLD-LIGHT". It is the generative sign by which the colors were spread throughout the world, it is the sign of the creative "image and alikeness" by which the human being was granted the gift-power to love both his / her fellow beings, cosmos and God. "LIGHT OF LIGHT", the metaphysics of physics...

Signs of Light
View details
Other title information: A biophotonic approach to human (meta)physical fundamentals
Annotation: We could say that inside the pages of this book we have "holographically" integrated the whole semiosis of the "world genesis by sign". This sign is the "creative sign" by which the light colours were spread throughout the world and the signs of the "creative face and resemblance" by which the human being was granted the gift-power to love his / her fellow beings, the cosmos and God.
