Abstract:

The articles assembled in "Semblance and Signification" explore linguistic 
and literary structures from a range of theoretical perspectives with a view to 
understanding the extent, prevalence, productivity, and limitations of iconically 
grounded forms of semiosis. With the complementary examination of large 
theoretical issues, extensive corpus analysis in several modern languages such 
as Italian, Japanese Sign Language, and English, and applied close studies 
across a range of artistic media, this volume brings a fresh understanding of the 
cognitive underpinnings of iconicity. If primary and secondary modelling 
systems are rarely studied in tandem, it is clear from this volume that their 
fruitful juxtaposition yields striking insight into the cognitive concerns that 
pervade current semiotic research.
