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.

The body in language
View details
Annotation: Language is not merely verbal. Nonverbal signs and interpretations not only contribute to language, but in fact compose the structure of language itself. Horst Ruthrof delves into the nonverbal facets of language, such as olfactory, gustatory, aural, visual and tactile readings. Proposing reclamation of the body as an integral part of language, this book argues against structural linguistics and post-Saussurean theories. To support his standpoint, Ruthrof draws on the writings of Peirce, Husserl, Heidegger, Wittgenstein, Derrida, and Helen Keller, and on recent research in cognitive science, cognitive linguistics, and cognitive rhetoric.

The Matrix of Narrative
View details
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.

Annotation: Semiotics and the Philosophy of Language comprehends the entire tradition of the doctrine of signs, threading its way through the symbolic and allegorical readings of the Holy Scriptures, the varying insights of the fields of philosophy and rhetoric, and into (and out of) the various positions of modern literary criticism. Individual chapters are devoted to the nature of signs; the theory of definition; the cognitive function of metaphors and symbols; mirror images, painting, film, and television; and the role of inference in the interpretation of texts
