Abstract:

This volume addresses five different Dimensions of Iconicity. While some
contributions examine the phonic dimensions of iconicity that are based on
empirical, diachronic and theoretical work, others explore the function of
similarity from a cognitive point of view. The section on multimodal
dimensions takes into account philosophical, linguistic and literary
perspectives in order to analyse, for example, the diagrammatic interplay of
written texts and images. Contributions on performative dimensions of
iconicity focus on Buddhist mantras, Hollywood films, and the dynamics of
rhetorical structures in Shakespeare. Last but not least, the volume also
addresses new ways of considering iconicity, including notational iconicity,
the interplay of iconicity, ambiguity, interpretability, and the iconicity of
literary analysis from a formal semanticist point of view.
