Other title information: The Tradition of Ferdinand de Saussure
Annotation: The book is an in-depth presentation of the European branch of semiotic theory, originating in the work of Ferdinand de Saussure. It has four parts: a historical introduction, the analysis of langue, narrative theory and communication theory. The book concerns the European branch of semiotic theory, originating in the work of Ferdinand de Saussure. It briefly reviews the historical schools of modern semiotics and then focuses on the Saussurean theory of the language system, the principles of narrative analysis as developed by A. J. Greimas, and the extension of this theoretical framework to the understanding of communication and the social nature of semiotic systems. It emphasizes the operational aspects of semiotics and matters of methodology and techniques, including the initiative of quantitative analysis.

Other title information: Zoosemiotic perspectives
Notes: Editors of the series: Kalevi Kull, Silvi Salupere, Peeter Torop
Annotation: This book is a collective effort. Its authors belong to the research group in zoosemiotics and human-animal relations based in the Department of Semiotics at the University of Tartu in Estonia, and in the Department of Semiotics at the University of Stavanger in Norway. The two opening chapters are written and edited collectively and present a framework of philosophical, historical, epistemological and methodological matters of zoosemiotic research. These initial considerations are followed by specific case studies that have been conducted by individual authors. The specific chapters, however, have been cross-edited and commented on by other authors of the book so that the whole collection forms an integrated set of view-points.

Semiotics and the modern Quebec novel
Paul Perron
- Dependent title
- a Greimassian analysis of Thériault's Agaguk
Literature University of Toronto Press 0802009263 Available
View details
Annotation: The most popular novel in Quebec since the Second World War, Yves Theriault's Agaguk was published just before the Quiet Revolution, a period of major political and cultural transformation that radically altered Quebec society at the beginning of the 1960s. In this original socio-semiotic reading of the novel in translation, inspired by A.J. Greimas and the Paris School of Semiotics, Paul Perron examines the Inuit setting and characters of Agaguk as metaphors for Quebec society. Semiotics and the Modern Quebec Novel is one of the few semiotic analyses to deal with an entire novel, and illustrates the heuristic value of this complex methodology with respect to long prose texts in English.

Peirce, Paradox, Praxis
Roberta Kevelson
Social Mouton de Gruyter 0899256414 Available
View details
Other title information: The Image, the Conflict, and the Law
Annotation: "In this book I try to show a continuity of thought, centering on the ideterminancy of law: on conflicts, contradiction, and paradox represented in and by law. I assume that this continuous growth of modern semiotics orginates with Peirce, branches into Legal Realism, and branches further into Legal Semiotics on the one hand and Critical Legal Theory on the other."

Convention, Translation, and Understanding
Robert Feleppa
- Dependent title
- Philosophical Problems in the Comparative Study of Culture
Culture State University of New York Press 0887066739 Available
View details
Annotation: This book surveys theoretical controversies in anthropology that revolve around reconciling the objective description of culture with the influence of inquirer interests and conceptions. It relates them to the discussions by followers of W.V. Quine who see the problems of anthropological inquiry as indicative of conceptual problems in the basic assumptions operative in the discipline, and in the study of language in general. Feleppa offers a revised view of the nature and function of translation in anthropology that gives a plausible account of the problems that traditional semantics introduces into anthropology, while avoiding the severe methodological import Quine envisions.
