Marcel Danesi and Paul Perron have written a unique primer that addresses the way culture is studied within a semiotic framework. The authors give a concise, accessible overview of theories of signs in the history of philosophy and the social sciences. Principles of semiotic analysis are presented with vivid examples drawn from the world around us. Chapters are devoted to, among other things, the body and nonverbal communication; language acquisition, language in its social context, and how language shapes thought; cultural meanings of territories, spaces, and buildings; the importance of art to culture; cultural meanings of objects, artifacts, and technological processes; forms and cultural functions of narrative; and television and advertising media. Analyzing Cultures is without peer as an introduction and reference for readers who want to understand the place of semiotics in the history of philosophy and the social sciences. 606 $aSemiotiek$2gtt 606 $aCultuur$2gtt 606 $aKultursemiotik$2gnd 606 $aSemiotics$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01112351 606 $aCulture$xSemiotic models$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00885081 606 $a02.02 philosophy and theory of science$3(NL-LeOCL)077592441$2bcl 606 $aCulture$xModeles semiotiques 606 $aSemiotique 606 $aCulture$xSemiotic models 606 $aSemiotics 608 $aEinfu?hrung. 615 17$aSemiotiek. 615 17$aCultuur. 615 7$aKultursemiotik. 615 0$aSemiotics. 615 0$aCulture$xSemiotic models. 615 0$a02.02 philosophy and theory of science. 615 0$aCulture$xModeles semiotiques. 615 0$aSemiotique. 615 0$aCulture$xSemiotic models. 615 0$aSemiotics. 700 $aDanesi$b Marcel$f1946-$0166452 702 $aPerron$b Paul 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910524680603321 996 $aAnalyzing Cultures$92772154 997 $aUNINA
