Book Description
This book emphasizes the ontological foundation of signs, a semiotic perspective that opens the way to culture. It extends the reader’s understanding of the semiotic process by problematizing the concept of “sign” beyond its classical definitions. Its didactic explanations allow a progressive design of the spiritual function of signs, and, as such, it will appeal to students concerned with understanding human nature. The book will also be of interest to professors and researchers, as well as anyone interested in the field of the Humanities

Edusemiotics – A Handbook
Author: Inna Semetsky
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9811014957
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 316
Book Description
Edusemiotics is a pioneering area of study that connects semiotics – the science of signs – with educational theory and the philosophy of education. This volume reflects cutting-edge research by scholars in education and in semiotics worldwide, bridging the two discourses to present the state of the art in this new transdisciplinary field. The book’s emphasis is on educational theory as based on semiotic philosophy: as such, it challenges the current conception of semiotics in education as merely a sub-branch of applied semiotics. It presents edusemiotics as a novel unified conceptual framework at the interface of theoretical semiotics and educational philosophy, based on both theoretical and empirical studies from around the world. The chapters in this handbook also bring to the fore the intellectual legacy of Charles S. Peirce, John Dewey, Gilles Deleuze, Umberto Eco, Julia Kristeva, Mikhail Bakhtin, Paul Ricoeur, Martin Heidegger and other thinkers, pointing out the implications of edusemiotics for meaningful pedagogy and experiential learning in diverse contexts.

Semiotics and Visual Communication II
Author: Evripides Zantides
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1527509761
Category : Design
Languages : en
Pages : 293
Book Description
The chapters in this book consist of selected papers that were presented at the 2nd International Conference and Poster Exhibition on Semiotics and Visual Communication at the Cyprus University of Technology in October 2015. They investigate the theme of the Conference, Culture of Seduction [the seduction of culture] and look at Seduction as in “deception”, not sexual enticement, but as a mechanism of attraction and appeal which has often been the case in many communication strategies and approaches used by mass and popular culture. Seduction has historic and increasing agency in visual communication—the urgency to entice viewers is ever more powerful in difficult economic times, in an increasingly hyper-real world – and designers are led to become exceedingly complicit in its strategies. The contributions here cover a range of approaches from theoretical aspects of seduction in verbal and nonverbal communication, public spaces, design and meaning, seductive strategies, and advertising design, as well as fashion representations and packaging design.
