Challenging communication processes through recent semiotic paradigms
Session
Journalism, Media and Communication
Description
The aim of the present text is to advance some significant scholarly discussions in the field of semiotics, which have brought revolutionary approaches to the communication process. I aim to argue on the nature of the communication process today as a “way of signs” [such as explicated by (Deely, 2009)], in difference to the traditional semiotic processes based on duality and dichotomous provisions. I will attempt at exemplifying this phenomenon through the “semiotics of passions”, recently introduced through Greimas and Fontanille (1993), as well as through existential semiotics, as the last revolution in frames of semiotic studies (Tarasti, 2015). The aim is twofold: to explicate the communication process itself as well as its outcomes: the signification process. The paper shall exemplify “artistic” realities, as opposed to realistically “lived” social contexts.
Keywords:

Challenging communication processes through recent semiotic paradigms
