St. Petersburg State University, Russia June 2-4
For those who cannot come to St Petersburg,
it is possible to attend on-line, register here:
Tomorrow at 16h (St Petersburg time), I will present in this congress the talk
"The Pyramid of Meaning"
In this talk / paper, I present a new theory of meaning, inspired by Saussure,
but instead of considering only a pair (signifier/signified) packed in one element, the "sign",
I consider a triple (word/idea/thing) packed in one element, the "notion".
In 2017 I organized a workshop in Geneva, part of CLG 100:
Arbitrariness of the Sign
Here is the resulting book
The Arbitrariness of the Sign in Question
and here my introductory paper:
"Arbitrariness Symbolic Key"
Everybody is welcome to submit a book to the book series:
Logic and Semiotics
Some years before I also organized in Neuchâtel, Switzerland, a workshop on symbol vs arbitrary sign.
Here is the resulting book:
La Pointure du Symbole
and here my introductory paper:
"L'Arbitraire du Signe face à la Puissance du Symbole"
