Description

Explore the foundations and evolution of semiotics with Semiotic Perspectives, part of the Routledge Library Editions: Semantics and Semiology. Originally published in 1982, this text provides a comprehensive look at the wide variety of issues within this field of study. Readers begin by tracing the origins of modern semiotics through the work of two pioneering figures, Saussure and Peirce. This section establishes the fundamental assumptions, notions, and distinctions necessary to understand more recent academic developments. The book moves beyond basic theory to examine specific frameworks, including Behavioural Semiotics and Luis Prieto's concept of "l'Acte Semique." It also covers significant linguistic and philosophical shifts, such as Austin's theory of Speech Acts and Searle's subsequent elaborations. Finally, the text examines Barthes' transition away from purely scientific and philosophical approaches. This book serves as an essential resource for students and scholars interested in the history and criticism of semiotics and semantics.
