Annotation: This series focuses on the state of contemporary semiotics and its current applications. Each volume in the series places its topic within a general understanding of today's semiotics, an interdisciplinary field which investigates the application of sign theory not only to culture, but also to nature. The books are accessubly written and communicate with an academic readership that is not overspecialized.

Companion to European Heritage Revivals
View details
Annotation: This Companion to European Heritage Revivals offers inspiration and new ideas to those who want to engage a large, international audience in activities which bring the past to life. It offers a critical examination of the field's basic concepts and discusses a vast array of 'heritage revival tools', including games, historical re-enactments, 3D-visualisations, films, television documentaries, spatial designs and, most importantly, international heritage routes. Through many case studies, this book demonstrates how various aspects of heritage can be effectively presented by linking historical places and landscapes in a single revival to create a multifaceted but coherent whole.

Greimas close and far

Parallel title: Parallel title: Greimas arti ir toli
Annotation: Algirdas Julien Greimas (born Algirdas Julius Greimas) is one the most prominent creators of semiotics who laid the foundations of the Paris School of Semiotics known all over the world. He was also a famous linguist who researched Lithuanian mythology. Algirdas Julien Greimas is one of the most prominent Lithuanians in the international world of science, in many aspects compared to Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis. The greatest influence on the life and works of Greimas came from French culture renowned for its science, literature and art. Nevertheless, the time spent in Lithuania was also significant. Greimas himself viewed Lithuanian and western (French) periods of his life as correlation between two cultures. Therefore, every moment of his life is important to us, each moment contributing to the whole picture and enriching his life. Neither Greimas' childhood nor his youth which is the genesis of intellectual and aesthetic signs is reviewed in literature. Various authors tend to start writing Greimas'biography starting from his years in Vytautas Magnus University. Professor Eero Tarasti, the president of the International Association for Semiotic Studies, offered me to prepare a work about Greimas' life in Lithuania. As I myself studied in Kupiškis and knew a lot of things about the Greimas family, I decided to look at Greimas'childhood period in Kupiškis. The sources I used in this work are as follows: Greimas' words about his childhood, national and personal archives, press of those days and stories told by those who knew the Greimas family.My experience with exceptionally gifted children in National M. K. Čiurlionis School of Art in Vilnius and consulting with famous scientist has helped me to discuss the genesis of intellectual and aesthetic signs in Greimas' biography. As for the form of the work, I have chosen to use the form of an exposition with elements of a poster presentation, which allowed me to participate in significant scientific forums in France, Finland, Russia and China. In Lithuania, in those places where Greimas lived, my exposition contributed to the studies of his biography, organisation of conferences and dedication to Greimas. As it turned out, the prestigious gymnasiums where Greimas studied in Šiauliai and Marijampolė established in 1851 and 1867 have raised about half (9 out of 20) of those who signed the Act of Independence of Lithuania on 16 February 1918 and 12 out of 100 most outstanding persons in Lithuania in a millennium. In this respect these two gymnasiums are the only ones in Lithuania. It should also be mentioned that Greimas attended lectures in Vytautas Magnus University by famous Lithuanian scientists Mykolas Romeris, Vladas Jurgutis, Vosylius Sezemanas and Jonas Bučas who later contributed to laying the foundation for the science of semiotics.

Semiotic models of legal argumentation

Annotation: The present doctoral dissertation is an exercise in exposition, comparison, criticism and construction, and this is the result of a project conceived ten years ago. We have taken different traditions of legal reasoning, and by juxtaposing them have sought to clarify and assess semiotic presuppositions, in order to outline a theoretical framework of legal semiotics that would help to lay the foundations for semiotic theory of legal argumentation. These semiotic presuppositions have been the object of our study at the University of Tartu since our bachelor's thesis (defended in 2001) and master's thesis (defended in 2006). Our interest in legal semiotics was motivated by a very strong sense of dissatisfaction with the traditional methods and paradigms of contemporary jurisprudence, especially with those ones of legal argumentation. Traditional jurisprudence committed to a model of legal unity, does not for the most part seeks to describe how the views of legal actors interact with the views of other legal actors/participants of legal discourse in real situations of legal communication. Thus, it was the consideration of legal communication as a semiotic activity that caused us to doubt that law could be conceived in terms of traditional legal concepts. Legal semiotics can be regarded as a major advance because it debunks the prevailing assumptions about the nature of legal reasoning and replaces them with what seems a far superior explanation. The main scientific objectives of this dissertation can be briefly formulated as follows: 1) to develop a conceptual framework for practical handling of complex problems of legal argumentation as they occur in the stages of legal communication; 2) to assess issues of compatibility/conflict between existing methods of legal reasoning and our semiotic model of legal reasoning; 3) to bridge the compatible aspects of different theories/models of legal argumentation to establish a generalizable model of legal argumentation.

Estrategias globales

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.

Peirce's Semiotics Now
- Dependent title
- a primer
View details
Annotation: Peirce's Semiotics Now: A Primer is written for the student of semiotics, linguistics, communication, literary and aesthetic studies and philosophy. It provides a penetrating introduction to Charles S. Peirce's concept of the sign, as distinguished from Ferdinand de Saussure's linguistic theory. The author places Peircean semiotics in today's cultural setting. It thus accounts for our multicultural, intertextual, high-tech, postmodern scene, as a set of unifying ideas at the heart of which lies semiosis, the perpetual movement of signs

Intermittences du sens

- études sémiotiques

Annotation: Les intermittences du sens, c'est ici, tout d'abord, une pluralité d'pbjects en tous genres (romans, nouvelles ou poèmes, en françauis ou en anglais; discours littéraires, échanges de lettres, bribes de conversation courante; pratiques quotidienne ou objets esthétiques) que traverse et que scande le retour d'une même question: celle de la signification de son surgissement, de ses modes de manifestation et même, peut-on dire, de ses agissements. C'est aussi de point en point et de part en part, le jeu réglé des singularités et des récurrences, l'alternance des espèces constituées et des morphologies en devenir, l'entrejeu des discontinuités et des enchaînements, sur le support, el la dynamique des places et des forces. C'est, dans l'épaisseur des textes, l'échange réversible entre l'espace vectorisé oû les figures se déploient et le substrat figural que y imprime sa prosodie et ses contours. C'est enfin et surtout à la caçon de l'accompagnement qui lie la partition, l'interrogation sur le ses du sens: non pas tant sa saisie que sa poursuite et plutôt que sa fuite, sa fugue. The intermittences of meaning are here, first of all, a plurality of objects of all kinds (novels, short stories or poems, in French or in English; literary discourses, exchanges of letters, snippets of everyday conversation; daily practices or aesthetic objects) that cross and that are punctuated by the return of the same question: that of the meaning of its emergence, of its modes of manifestation and even, one might say, of its actions. It is also from point to point and from one end to the other, the regulated play of singularities and recurrences, the alternation of constituted species and morphologies in the making, the interplay of discontinuities and sequences, on the support, and the dynamics of places and forces. It is, in the thickness of the texts, the reversible exchange between the vectorized space where the figures are deployed and the figural substrate that its prosody and its contours imprint there. It is finally and above all the way of accompaniment which links the score, the questioning of the meaning: not so much its grasp as its pursuit and rather than its escape, its fugue.
