Other title information: proposals for a handbook

Annotation: Zoosemiotcs is more than forty years old. It was in 1963 when Thomas Sebeok established its birth and, partly, definitons. As most people in their forties, zoosemiotics, too, seems to be driven by a desire to reflect about its life, its identity and its experiences. We know very little about zoosemiotics, and the amount of information at our disposal is sometimes quite confusing, if not confused. Forty years is a very young age, scientifically speaking, for a discipline to answer its most important questions. The present book consists of a series of esssays with a homogenous and causally correlated structure. It summarises all the author's interests in the field, including his attempt to extend the field to the areas of anthrozoology (i.e., the study of the human-other animal relationship) and a string ethical input.

Global Semiotics

Thomas A. Sebeok

General Semiotics Indiana University Press 025333957X Available

View details

Annotation: The study of semiotics underwent a gradual but radical paradigm shift during the past century, from a glottocentric (language-centered) enterprise to one that encompasses the whole terrestrial biosphere. In this collection of 17 essays, Thomas A. Sebeok, one of the seminal thinkers in the field, shows how this progression took place. His wide-ranging discussion of the evolution of the field covers many facets, including discussions of biosemiotics, semiotics as a bridge between the humanities and the natural sciences, semiosis, nonverbal communication, cat and horse behavior, the semiotic self, and women in semiotics. This thorough account will appeal to seasoned scholars and neophytes alike."

The Forms of Meaning

General Semiotics Mouton de Gruyter 3110167514 Available

Other title information: Modeling System Theory and Semiotic Analysis

Annotation: This book presents a methodological framework, developed from the field of biosemiotics, for studying semiotic phenomena as modeling processes. It presents a descriptive system for uniting semiotics and biology so that the "modeling instinct" can be studied in terms of its manifestations in various species. The book is written in an accessible textbook style, and can thus be used as a manual by both professional semioticians and students taking courses in semiotics, biology, and the communication sciences. It is composed in such a way that a broad readership can appreciate the fascinating research going on in a relatively unknown area of interdisciplinary study.

Annotation: Sherlock Holmes, nei racconti di Conan Doyle, parla sovente del suo metodo, e ne parla sempre en termini di "deduzioneL. Da tempo anche i logici i filosofi della scienza, quando discutono del metodo scientifico /ovvero della logica, della scoperta), dedicano sempre alcume rige, e spesso alcune pagine, a Sherlock Holmes, perché si sono resi conto che, seppure en forma narrativa, il celebre detective stava espondendo dei criteri di osservazione e scoperta, che sono affini a quelli del medico che diagnosctica una malattia, dello scienziato che interroga un fenomeno naturale, de filologo che deve prendere una decisione su un testo lacunoso, dello storico che deve ricostruire una situazione del passato sulla base di impresice testimonianze.
