Abstract:

The "Iconicity in Language and Literature" series has long been dedicated to
the recognition and understanding of the pervasiveness of iconicity in
language in its many forms and functions. The present volume, divided into
four sections, brings together and unifies different perspectives on
iconicity. Chapters in the first section (Iconicity in language) provide
linguistic analyses of systems of iconic forms in different languages, across
both space (areally) and time (diachronically). The second section (Iconicity
in literature) is concerned with stylistic analyses of iconicity in
literature, in both poetry and prose and across a range of devices and genres.
The third section (Iconicity in visual media) highlights the use and effects
of iconicity in pictorial, photographic and cinematic media. The final section
(Iconicity in semiotic analysis) offers a theoretical perspective, targeting
an operationalisation of iconicity with respect to the relationship between
types and subtypes of Peircean signs.
