Notes: Sign-worlds. Studies from the Budapest Contemporary Semiotics Workshop

Annotation: The studies in this volume are part of a project on the semiotics of space, which emerged from research conducted in Budapest Contemporary Semiotics Workshop. This project is primarily based on the real fact that we live in multiple types and kinds of sign-spaces in society. These sign-spaces, such as a traffic sign system or a film location, are semiotically describable units of space filled with sign-formations and signs that are interconnected in some way. The implementation of the spatial semiotics project has three main strands, as illustrated by papers in this volume: firstly, researchers map the syntactic and other features of existing sign-spaces, and secondly, they use the resulting toolbox to refine descriptive semiotic procedures. Finally, and thirdly, they apply these tools to solve practical problems.

Other title information: 2 dekady oneho umenia v Nitre

Annotation: In Slovakia, especially outside the capital, unconventional art has never been given the space it deserves. It was and is no different in Nitra, where – although it is home to two universities – progressive, experimental and alternative artistic initiatives still do not bloom like roses... They find themselves in an alienated position, often on the fringes of interest, somehow “they cannot come up with a name” – in which case they are called “that” in the local dialect. Perhaps that is why we have chosen the adjective of not another, but “that” art in the title of this publication, which in many ways deviates from the norm, is significantly different, provocative, and at the very least thought-provoking. The monographic publication Hermovo Ucho & PostmutArt – 2 two decades of that art in Nitra aims to map retrospectively, in a chronological manner, the entire two decades of the existence of the international cycles, or rather festivals HERMOVO UCHO V NITRE and POSTMUTART, focused from the end of the 20th century to the present precisely on these artistic initiatives, often moving in a taxonomically indefinable interspace – on the border of intermedial overlaps and innovative fusions of new music, visual art, video art, performance, sound art, happening –, testing their limits and crossing the boundaries of discursive and non-discursive symbolism in the period of late postmodernism.

Mapping Musical Signification

Joan Grimalt

Edition
1 edition

Music Springer Cham 9783030524951 Available

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.

Multiculturalism as Multimodal Communication

Alin Olteanu

Edition
1 edition

Culture Springer Cham 9783030178826 Available

View details

Other title information: A Semiotic Perspective

Annotation: This highly readable book develops a numanistic, and specifically semiotic approach to multiculturalism. It reveals how semiotics provides fresh and valuable insights into multiculturalism: in contrast to the binary logic of dualistic philosophy, semiotic logic does not understand the value of truth in rigid terms of ‘true’ or ‘false’, ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ only. The value of truth resides in meaning, which is a dynamic, evolutionary phenomenon, rooted, nevertheless, in factuality. Drawing on recent developments in biosemiotics, the book presents a theoretical approach to multiculturalism, regarding the lives of people living in multicultural environments. Rather than analyzing political or economic phenomena, it offers a semiotic analysis of multiculturalism and discusses its educational implications. It also invites readers to regard learning as a phenomenon of ecological sign growth and to understand multiculturalism along the same lines. As such, it brings together the life and social sciences and the humanities in a unified perspective, in an approach fitting postmodernism.
