Paperback. Condizione: New. This Element provides an accessible introduction to ecosemiotics and demonstrates its pertinence for the study of today's unstable culture-nature relations. Ecosemiotics can be defined as the study of sign processes responsible for ecological phenomena. The arguments in this Element are developed in three steps that take inspiration from both humanities and biological sciences: 1) Showing the diversity, reach and effects of sign-mediated relations in the natural environment from the level of a single individual up the functioning of the ecosystem. 2) Demonstrating numerous ways in which prelinguistic semiotic relations are part of culture and identifying detrimental environmental effects that self-contained and purely symbol-based sign systems, texts and discourses bring along. 3) Demonstrating how ecosemiotic analysis centred on models and modelling can effectively map relations between texts and the natural environment, or the lack thereof, and how this methodology can be used artistically to initiate environmentally friendly cultural forms and practices.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. The book is the first annotated reader to focus specifically on the discipline of zoosemiotics. Zoosemiotics can be defined today as the study of signification, communication and representation within and across animal species. The name for the field was proposed in 1963 by the American semiotician Thomas A. Sebeok. He also established the framework for the paradigm by finding and tightening connections to predecessors, describing terminology, developing methodology and setting directions for possible future studies.The volume includes a wide selection of original texts accompanied by editorial introductions. An extensive opening introduction discusses the place of zoosemiotics among other sciences as well as its inner dimensions; the understanding of the concept of communication in zoosemiotics, the heritage of biologist Jakob v. Uexküll; contemporary developments in zoosemiotics and other issues. Chapter introductions discuss the background of the authors and selected texts, as well as other relevant texts.The selected texts cover a wide range of topics, such as semiotic constitution of nature, cognitive capabilities of animals, typology of animal expression and many other issues. The roots of zoosemiotics can be traced back to the works of David Hume and John Locke. Great emphasis is placed on the heritage of Thomas A. Sebeok, and a total of four of his essays are included. The Reader also includes influential studies in animal communication (honey bee dance language, vervet monkey alarm calls) as well as theory elaborations by Gregory Bateson and others. The reader concludes with a section dedicated to contemporary research. Readings in Zoosemiotics is intended as a primary source of information about zoosemiotics, and also provides additional readings for students of cognitive ethology and animal communication studies.…

Condizione: new. Pages: 158 Language: Estonian. Raamat esitab sissejuhatuse ökosemiootikasse ja näitab selle asjakohasust tänapäeva ebastabiilsete kultuuri ja looduse suhete uurimisel. Ökosemiootikat võib defineerida kui nende märgiprotsesside uurimist, millest ökoloogilised nähtused sõltuvad. Mõtisklusi esitatakse teoses kolmes etapis, ammutades inspiratsiooni nii humanitaarteadustest kui ka bioloogiast. Esimeses peatükis selgitatakse märkide vahendatud suhete mitmekesisust, ulatust ja mõju looduskeskkonnas, alates üksikindiviidi tasandist kuni ökosüsteemi funktsioneerimiseni. Teises peatükis näidatakse eri viise, kuidas eelkeelelised semiootilised suhted on osa kultuurist ning osutatakse kahjulikele keskkonnamõjudele, mille toovad kaasa enesesse sulgunud ja pelgalt sümbolipõhised märgisüsteemid. Kolmandas peatükis selgub, kuidas mudelitele ja modelleerimisele keskenduv ökosemiootiline analüüs suudab efektiivselt kaardistada tekstide ja looduskeskkonna suhteid või tuua esile nende puudumise ning kuidas saab seda lähenemist loominguliselt kasutada, et panna alus keskkonnasõbralikele kultuurivormidele ja -praktikatele. Käesolev teos on ökosemiootika esimene raamatu mahus tutvustus eesti keeles. 9789985589229. …
