Abstract:
Space, in the environmental sense, holds a rather marginal position in semiotics. We shall try, however, to show in this paper that its importance is greater than thought previously, not only because it may establish one of the main sub-fields of semiotic research, but also because it has repercussions on other semiotic systems and even semiotic theory as such. We start by reviewing the main positions of the Theses of the Tartu-Moscow School and compare them to Lotman’s concept of the semiosphere. We conclude that a sociologically sound framework for culture is missing and try to demonstrate that culture is not the only factor composing a society, but there also exists a concept of a material, extra-semiotic society. This framework is systematically developed in relation to geographical space in our second section. We examine the place of space in semiotics according to two different axes of analysis. Th e first axis, discussed in our third section, corresponds to the semiotics of (geographical) space. We approach this field from two different perspectives. The first perspective is the direct study of urban space as a text, that is, it is focused on space-as-text. Three case studies are discussed, all drawn from pre-capitalist societies: the semiotic urban model in ancient Greece, the Ethiopian military camp and the spatial organization of the traditional Libyan oases. To the second perspective corresponds the semiotic study of the geographical spaces constructed by literary texts, that is, space-in-text. Here, we discuss two case studies: the ideal Platonic city and the medieval Arthurian courtly romances. These analyses are followed by an overview of the semiotics of space in pre-capitalist societies, to which we compare Lotman’s views.The second axis, discussed in our fourth section, concerns the importance of space for semiotic theory. We show that space can serve as a tool for the analysis of texts from other semiotic systems and focus on the use of space by different spatial metalanguages.

Abstract:
Abstract This interview/dialogue addresses an important issue of how educational semiotics is grounded in the history of ideas. The discussions concern the shared history of semiotics and liberal education; the modern university and its medieval antecedents; semiotic consciousness, the traces of which are found in both Christianity and Islam (and the hermeneutics of Abrahamic and mystical religions, in general); intercultural translation; the relationship between learning (conceptualized edusemiotically) and biosemiotics, and how our social understandings of learning determine and shape our basic relationship to the world. Touching on the concepts of scaffolding and evolution, the chapter discusses adaptation in relation to learning, social semiotics and contemporary social reality, while imploring us to consider education in terms of its service to learning (and not the other way around).Campbell: This interview was originally published as a recorded podcast-interview in 2017, on philosophasters.org as part of the interview series Signs of Life.

Abstract:
Abstract This article analyses the semiotic construction of the Other in the peritexts of three Medieval Arabic chronicles from al-Andalus (the Arabic name for the Iberian Peninsula governed by Muslims from 711 to 1492), published under the title Andalucía contra Berbería by the outstanding Spanish Arabist Emilio García Gómez. Few studies have dealt, from a critical perspective, with the discourse (or discourses) concerning Arabic cultures and societies constructed by European academic Orientalism in general, or by the Spanish Arabism in particular. Assuming that translation, given its hybrid nature, plays a crucial role in the construction of othering discourses, this article attempts to analyse the identification and othering strategies used by García Gómez on the basis of a methodological approach that combines Genette’s notion of paratext (1987), the notions of text, context and pretext proposed by Widdowson (2004 and 2007) and the “Model of semiotic construction of the Other” developed by Carbonell (2003 and 2004), all within the general framework of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA). The results of this analysis show a significant othering of Berber and/or African references. This is further reinforced by García Gómez’ identification with al-Andalus, which pivots between his own identification with the medieval authors of the three chronicles, and the parallels he establishes between medieval al-Andalus and the Spain of the first half of the 20th century.

Abstract:
InThe Semiotics of Performance, Marco de Marinis notes that the field of performance studies has greatly expanded the traditional categories of drama and theatre. “It is obvious,” he writes, “that we are dealing with a field that is far broader and more varied than the category consisting exclusively oftraditional stagings of dramatic texts, to which some scholars still restrict the class of theatrical performances.” A few scholars of early theatre history have embraced expanded categories of performance. Jody Enders's “medieval theater of cruelty,” for example, rests on a concept of “atheoryof virtual performance” that translates “into actual medieval dramatic practice.” Carol Symes's study of the “dramatic activity” suggested by medieval French manuscripts identifies “a vital performative element within the surrounding culture.” Both writers have shown how new ideas of performance enlarge the category beyond the “traditional stagings” described by de Marinis.

This paper aims to explore the onset and peak of the development of Gothic architecture, religious art and architecture eminently urban, between the twelfth and thirteenth centuries in the medieval West, in a socio-religious Catholic hegemony. The message sent to the faithful through the Gothic architecture, replacing Romanesque, indicates in this case a major change in mindset, since we consider the importance of semiotics in art, architecture and urban space.

Abstract:
Summary Modern linguistics textbooks devote little, if any, space to writing systems. Shifting our attention from naming precursors or proto-theories to reading earlier language study and linguistics as theorizing and description, the present paper explores ancient and early medieval concepts of the letter in terms of the semiotics of written language and the emergence of textual consciousness in manuscript culture. Early concepts and uses of the letter in alphabetic writing were ambiguous, multilayered, and occasionally contested, but they were not confused. Ancient and early medieval concepts of the letter were based on a semiotics of language and writing which connected spoken and visual signs as multimodal textual activity. Theories of the letter included: (a) the written character (gramma, littera) is a visual sign signifying a particular sound or group of sounds; (b) letters can function as arbitrary second-order signifying systems, such as numbers or diacritics; (c) different alphabets are rooted in the history of peoples although the Roman alphabet is a plastic medium for inscribing the emerging European vernaculars; (d) letters are material substances; (e) the written character is a mute sign; (f) the written character is imperfect or incomplete when detached from sound and the practice of reading aloud.

Abstract:
The article is devoted to the topic of visualization, which is relevant for the modern world in general and scientific knowledge in particular, investigated through the image of Plato in Antiquity and in medieval Orthodox painting. Using the example of Plato’s iconography as a visual message, the authors want to show the great potential for the development of the visual history of philosophy, anthropology and culture in general, as well as the new visually oriented semiotics and semantics of the image. This approach reveals expressively and meaningfully its relevance for the study of Plato’s image, together with other ancient philosophers’ images, in Orthodox medieval churches in Greece, Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria and, of course, ancient Russia in the 15th-17th cc, allowing to see the great ancient Greek philosopher from a new perspective.

Abstract:
In evaluating the Middle Ages on film, this thesis combines two different critical approaches, drawn from historiography on one side and semiotics on the other. In the first chapter, I argue that historiographic criticism has largely undermined our belief in a monolithic, objective History, and that modern historical enquiry contains a tacit admission of its own subjectivity. In Chapter Two, I use these admissions to argue the case for history on film, demonstrating that in terms of the construction of history, the processes of filmmaking closely resemble those of ‘doing’ history, and that criticisms of historical films are often the same criticisms which Historians raise in respect of their own works of ‘pure history’. In the remaining chapters (3-6), I look at specific examples of types of historical character, drawn from the medieval separation of society into “those who work, those who fight and those who pray”, as well as “those who rule”. In each case, I adopt a similar methodological approach, conducting close cinematographic analysis on a range of film extracts in order to see how filmmakers have tried to construct the past visually in their representation of historical characters. Here my arguments move away from historical criticism to focus instead on aesthetics and cinematography. The overall theory is that there exist two fundamental approaches to the medieval past in film: the first iconic and syntagmatic, the second paradigmatic. Iconic approaches, I argue, work to try to recreate the lost medieval referent by using aesthetic ‘signifiers’ in order to communicate their significance to a medieval audience. The paradigm, on the other hand, works in the opposite way; in order to explain a medieval object, the filmmaker casts about for modern equivalents to use as metaphors. Where the icon recreates the object to communicate the concept, the paradigm communicates the object by re-presenting the concept.

Abstract:
Denna uppsats undersöker runformerna belagda i gotländska inskrifter från medeltiden och reformationstiden. Syftet är delvis att inventera samtliga runformer, delvis att belysa deras bruk, utveckling och spridning ur ett kronologiskt och materialmässigt perspektiv. Inventeringen görs genom en typologisk modell som möjliggör identifieringen av runformernas distinktiva och redundanta drag, och följaktligen deras indelning i graftyper och graftypsvarianter. Den stora variationen som präglar runristarnas teckenuppsättning, liksom uppkomsten och utvecklingen av nya medeltida runformer förklaras ur olika synvinklar. För vissa graftyper, bl. a. den gotländska s-runan, blir alfabetsinterna utvecklingstendenser aktuella, såsom homogenitetsprincipen och hasta + coda‐principen. I andra fall har den latinska majuskelskriften, kalenderrunor och handskrivna runor haft inflytande på de gotländska runformerna. Även inskriftsföremålens material har visat sig vara en viktig faktor för vilka runformer man valde att rista. Graftyper med en kantig form användes t.ex. exklusivt i trä-, metall- och putsinskrifter. Möjligheten att använda runformer vid datering av inskrifter undersöks och kronologiska mönster samt några dateringskriterier för Gotlands medeltida inskrifter tas upp. Även uppgifter om vissa graftypers geografiska spridning ges, som t.ex. den gotländska m‐runan och den stungna l-runan, vars bruk är koncentrerade till Gotlands östra resp. sydvästra del.

Abstract:
Loin de prétendre à l’exhaustivité, cette thèse présente un premier essai visant à une compréhension plus unifiée et plus globale du système modal arabe d’une période s’étalant sur cinq siècles environ. Un des enjeux de cette recherche est, pour reprendre les termes d’Amnon Shiloah, « de quitter, une fois pour toutes, la légende de léthargie » et d’enlever la qualification de «stagnation » et d’« âge des ténèbres » longtemps attachée à cette époque. Il s’est avéré à travers les pages de cette recherche, que le système modal n’a jamais perdu sa vitalité. Tout au contraire, les études historique, philologique, systémique et sémiotique menées au cours de cette thèse attestent de la présence d’un fil conducteur qui lie, d’un bout à l’autre, la tradition du XIIIe siècle à celle du XIXe siècle
Far from being exhaustive, this thesis presents a first attempt to a more cohesive and comprehensive understanding of the Arab modal system of a period of time spanning about five centuries. One aim of this research is, following Amnon Shiloah, "to leave once and for all, the legend of lethargy" and remove the clause of "stagnation" and "dark ages" long attached to this epoch. It appears through the pages of this research that the modal system never lost its liveliness. On the contrary, historical, philological, systemic and semiotic studies conducted during this thesis show the presence of a thread that binds, from one end to the other, the tradition of the thirteenth century to that of the nineteenth century

Abstract:
Le théâtre religieux, devenu un média de masse dans les villes européennes entre le XIVe et le XVIe siècle, est depuis toujours un défi pour la recherche comparatiste. Malgré les nombreuses similitudes qui existent entre les jeux de différentes zones linguistiques, aucun lien génétique entre eux n’a pu être prouvé. La présente thèse se propose d’ouvrir de nouvelles perspectives à la recherche comparatiste en changeant d’approche méthodologique. Afin de dégager les stratégies de persuasion du théâtre religieux, elle identifie son répertoire sémiotique, consistant en signes linguistiques, iconiques, sonores (musique et bruits) et gestuels. Bien que les représentations historiques soient essentiellement inaccessibles à l’analyse, la « représentation imaginée », inscrite comme potentialité dans les signes transmis par les manuscrits, peut être reconstruite. À l’aide de méthodes provenant majoritairement de la linguistique textuelle, cette étude décrit certaines stratégies de persuasion dans une sélection représentative de Passions et de jeux eschatologiques germanophones et francophones. Elle identifie des lieux argumentatifs (topoï) qui structurent les pièces. Un chapitre est consacré au topos qui inscrit dans une certaine matière un scénario menaçant qui souligne l’importance et l’urgence de la représentation. La comparaison diachronique montre comment des stratégies de diffamation, employées aux XIVe et XVe siècles pour caractériser et diaboliser le collectif des juifs, sont appliquées aux protestants au XVIe siècle. L’évocation d’autorités permettant aux jeux de s’auto-légitimer est abordée dans un autre chapitre. L’analyse des différentes techniques d’évocation permet non seulement de décrire l’usage rhétorique et performatif des autorités, mais aussi de mettre en évidence différents concepts d’autorité. Enfin, une dernière partie montre comment le théâtre construit et perpétue des stéréotypes qui interpellent le public de façon tant rationnelle qu’émotionnelle, entraînant des processus d’inclusion et d’exclusion
Religious drama, which developed into a mass medium in European cities between the 14th and the 16th century, has always been a challenge for comparative research. Despite the many similarities between plays in different linguistic areas, no direct textual relationship between them could be proven. This dissertation aims to open up new perspectives for comparative research by changing the methodological approach. In order to identify the persuasion strategies of religious drama, this work considers the theatrical semiotic repertoire, consisting of language, image, sound (music and noise) and gesture. Although historical representations are essentially inaccessible to analysis, the ‘imagined representation,’ inscribed as potentiality in the signs transmitted by the manuscripts, can be reconstructed. Using methods mainly from textual linguistics, the study describes some persuasion strategies present in a representative selection of German and French Passion plays and eschatological plays. It identifies argumentative places (topoi) that structure the plays. A chapter is devoted to a topos, which recasts a certain subject in a threatening light. The plays use this in order to underline the relevance and urgency of theatrical representation. The diachronic comparison shows how defamation strategies, used in the 14th and 15th centuries to characterize and demonize the Jews as a collective, were applied to Protestants in the 16th century. Another chapter examines how the plays use authority as a topos to legitimize themselves. The analysis of the different evocation techniques makes it possible not only to describe the rhetorical and performative use of authorities, but also to highlight distinct concepts of authority. Finally, the last part shows how theatre builds and perpetuates stereotypes that affect the audience in both rational and emotional ways, leading to processes of inclusion and exclusion

Abstract:
Rene d'Anjou's Livre du Cuer is a romance allegory, set up as a dream narrative, recounting the failed quest of the knight Cuer (the personified heart of the narrator), who seeks to conquer the lady Doulce Mercy, held prisoner by the enemies of Love. The Mortifiement de Vaine Plaisance is a didactic religious allegory concerning the Soul, who desires heaven, distressed by her heart's yearning for worldly things ('vaine plaisance'), and the heart's subsequent purification by crucifixion The surviving illuminated manuscripts of these two fifteenth-century texts provide an interesting case study of the relationship between text and image, serving as impetus to a larger investigation of a more general and theoretical understanding of such a relationship. The first order is a thorough comparison of the miniature cycles and their visual interpretation of the details of the text. Subsequent chapters develop a semiotic approach to manuscript illumination as two sign systems interrelated in a single space, and discuss the particular case of allegory, represented both verbally (in the text) and visually (in the miniatures). The allegorical heart is the sign that connects the two texts, but the miniatures serve different purposes in each: in the Mortifiement, the miniatures amplify the text's lessons and its attempt to excite intense religious emotion; in the Livre du Cuer, they largely exalt the chivalric quest, which is fundamentally questioned by the text

Abstract:
The subject of this thesis is Roger Bacon`s work De signis. Its goal is to consider in what sense Bacon works out the general theory of signs. In this sense the thesis` method is situated in the field of "archeology of sings". First it examines Bacon`s definition of sign as a relation, investigates its formal properties and ways of application in particular cases, i.e. Bacon`s classification of signs. Then it shows the way in which Bacon applies this general notion in particular examinations, that is in problems of what the words signify, concept of univaocation and equivocation, theory of analogy and last but not least it considers a question of the nature of signification itself. The last chapter is dedicated to the examination of the (re)imposition phenomenon together with consideration of result it has on the notion of sign relation`s nature and how it serves as an explanation of the process in which these relations work. Keywords: Roger Bacon, John Deely, Charles S. Peirce, medieval semiotics, archeology of signs.

Abstract:

The idea of “the book” overflows with extraneous significance: books are presented as windows, gateways, vessels, lighthouses, and gardens. Books speak to us and feed us, and they are a method of escape. The book has long represented much more than a static, hinged, bound, covered object inscribed with words. Even when a book is not performing an elaborate, imaginative function, the word “book” very often signifies the text it holds or even the text’s author: You can open The Bluest Eye or carry Toni Morrison in your bag. Fourteenth-century author Geoffrey Chaucer invokes a “book” by “Lollius” as authoritative source of his Troilus and Criseyde, though no person exists; likewise, to conclude the same text, Chaucer asks directs his project to “go, litel bok, go.” When a book makes an appearance in narrative, it is rarely just a book—without legs, the book moves, and without breath, it lives. This dissertation asks what about the shape of the codex has helped the book become such a metaphorically rich signifier.

This dissertation attempts to unravel the various threads of meaning that make up the complex “idea of the book.” I focus on one of these threads: the book as a material object. By focusing on how the book as object—not the book as idea—functions within narrative, I argue that we can identify what about the book object enables its metaphorical range. I analyze moments in literature, television, and film when metaphorical functions are assigned, not to an ephemeral, complex idea of the book, but rather to the material realities of the book as an object. In these moments, the codex’s essential, material shape (what I am calling its bookishness) enables metaphorical functioning; I show that, by examining when mundanely physical bindings, pages, covers, and spines initiate metaphorical action, we can identify how the material book has come to mean so much more than itself.

Indeed, despite a renewed appreciation for the book as both material and cultural object, books have become so significantly meaningful that attempts to define “the book” evade simplicity, rendering books as everything and nothing at the same time. My inquire explores this complexity by starting with a simple premise: Metaphors are based on some element of physical truth. Though the book has sprouted in a variety of metaphorical directions, many of those metaphors are grounded in the book’s material realities. Acknowledging this, especially in an age of fast-evolving media and bookish fetishism, offers a valuable and novel perspective on how and why books are both semantically rich and culturally valued objects.

Abstract:
The Medieval Life of Language: Grammar and Pragmatics from Bacon to Kempe explores the complex history of medieval pragmatic theory and ideas and metapragmatic awareness across social discourses. Pragmatic thinking about language and communication is revealed in grammar, semiotics, philosophy, and literature. Part historical reconstruction, part social history, part language theory, Amsler supplements the usual materials for the history of medieval linguistics and discusses the pragmatic implications of grammatical treatises on the interjection, Bacon’s sign theory, logic texts, Chaucer’s poetry, inquisitors’ accounts of heretic speech, and life-writing by William Thorpe and Margery Kempe. Medieval and contemporary pragmatic theory are contrasted in terms of their philosophical and linguistic orientations. Aspects of medieval pragmatic theory and practice, especially polysemy, equivocation, affective speech, and recontextualization, show how pragmatic discourse informed social controversies and attitudes toward sincere, vague, and heretical speech. Relying on Bakhtinian dialogism, critical discourse analysis, and conversation analysis, Amsler situates a key period in the history of linguistics within broader social and discursive fields of practice.
