The book takes a zoosemiotic approach and considers different species as being integrated with the environment via their specific umwelt or subjective perceptual world. The authors elaborate J. v. Uexküll's concept of umwelt to make it applicable for analyzing complex and dynamical interactions between animals, humans, environment and culture. The opening chapters of the book present a framework for philosophical, historical, epistemological and methodological aspects of zoosemiotic research. These initial considerations are followed by specific case studies: on human-animal interactions in zoological gardens, communication in the teams of visually disabled persons and guiding dogs, semiotics of the animal condition in philosophy, historical changes in the role of animals in human households, the semiotics of predation, cultural perception of novel species, and other topics. The authors belong to the research group in zoosemiotics and human-animal relations based in the Department of Semiotics at the University of Tartu in Estonia, and in the University of Stavanger in Norway. 410 0$aTartu semiotics library ;$v18. 606 $aSemiotics / semiology$2bicssc 606 $aAnimals & society$2bicssc 606 $aAnimal communication$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00809125 606 $aHuman-animal communication$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00963479 606 $aSemiotics$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01112351 610 $aanimal representations 610 $asemiotics 610 $aanimals 610 $aumwelten 610 $azoosemiotics 610 $ahuman-animal relations 610 $aJakob Johann von Uexküll 610 $aMimicry 610 $aNorway 610 $aPredation 615 7$aSemiotics / semiology 615 7$aAnimals & society 615 7$aAnimal communication. 615 7$aHuman-animal communication. 615 7$aSemiotics. 676 $a591.59 700 $aMäekivi$b Nelly$01786784 702 $aTønnessen$b Morten 702 $aArmstrong Oma$b Kristin 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 912 $a9910309953403321 996 $aAnimal Umwelten in a Changing World$94318955 997 $aUNINA
