Mathematics as a Modeling System

Other title information: a Semiotic Approach

Notes: Editors of the series: Kalevi Kull, Silvi Salupere, Peeter Torop

Annotation: Mathematics and semiotics share many intellectual features and interests, from the study of how representations stand for specific kinds of referents to philosophical considerations of how these interrelate with reality. Nonetheless, in-depth studies of this intrinsic relation between the two have rarely been undertaken, with a few notable exceptions (as will be discussed in the book). Especially relevant to the study of the nature of mathematics is the concept of model – a term and notion that is used widely in both disciplines. However, to the best of our knowledge the theory of models in semiotics, known as Modeling Systems Theory, has rarely, if ever, been applied to the study of mathematical modeling. The purpose of this book is to do exactly that since it is our view that mathematics is a de facto modelling system in the semiotic sense and it is our hope that from this it will be possible to gain considerable insights into how mathematics works and achieves the discoveries and forms of knowledge that it has since the dawn of antiquity. Hopefully, this will allow both mathematicians and semioticians to pursue similar or analogous research objectives with regard to understanding the biological and cognitive etiology of sign systems and their connection to reality.

Other title information: Family Systems and Semiotics of Story

Annotation: The study which follows proposes a reconstruction of semiotic theory of narrative in light of certain current accounts – psychoanalytic, Proppian, feminist, deconstructive – of the story-telling process. Starting from classical semiotic assumptions – that fictional narrative constitutes a discursive field rather than simply a collocation of texts –, the discussion isolates relational patterns informing various modellings of the story process, outlines a framework for integrating these into a matrix of combinational possibilities and suggests on that basis some vantage points from which to address a number of still pending issues within narrative studies.
