The general theme of the lec­tures is the emerging field of cog­nitive semi­otics (CS), which com­bines methods and the­ories from cog­nitive science, 
semi­otics and lin­guistics in invest­ig­a­tions of the mul­ti­fa­ceted 
concept of meaning. A general ambition of CS is to address long-​​lasting problems related to “mind and body”, 
“nature and culture”, “indi­vidual and society” and thus con­tribute to 
mending the gap between natural science and the human­ities, without 
attempting to reduce one to the other. The first two lec­tures will be 
the most general ones, intro­ducing CS and 
providing a general overview of major con­cepts, methods and fields of 
inquiry. The second pair of lec­tures will be devoted to human 
bio-​​cultural evol­ution, pro­posing a theory of what allowed our 
ancestors to develop unique char­ac­ter­istics in the animal kingdom, 
and for cumu­lative cul­tural evol­ution, and even­tually lan­guage, to 
emerge. The third pair will be devoted to ontogeny, focusing on the 
par­allel devel­opment of speech and gesture. The final pair will 
concern two phe­nomena of lin­guistic semantics that have remained 
con­tro­versial, and where the cognitive-​​semiotic approach can offer 
new insights: sen­tences of “fictive motion” (e.g. “The road goes 
through the forest”) and sound-​​symbolism.
