Book Desire in Language

Download or read book Desire in Language written by Julia Kristeva and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2024-02-20 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Desire in Language presents a selection of Julia Kristeva’s essays that trace the path of an investigation, extending over a period of ten years, into the semiotics of literature and the arts. Probing beyond the claims of Sigmund Freud, Jacques Lacan, and others, Kristeva proposes and tests theories centered on the nature and development of the novel, and on what she has defined as a signifying practice in poetic language and pictural works. Desire in Language fully shows what Roman Jakobson has called Kristeva’s “genuine gift of questioning generally adopted ‘axioms,’ and her contrary gift of releasing various ‘damned questions’ from their traditional question marks.”

Mitchell asks, are pictures (and theories of pictures) doing now, in the late twentieth century, when the power of the visual is said to be greater than ever before, and the "pictorial turn" supplants the "linguistic turn" in the study of culture? This book by one of America's leading theorists of visual representation offers a rich account of the interplay between the visible and the readable across culture, from literature to visual art to the mass media.

Book Eloquent Design

  • Author : Lisa A. Baird
  • Publisher : Cambridge Scholars Publishing
  • Release : 2015-09-18
  • ISBN : 144388295X
  • Pages : 165 pages

Download or read book Eloquent Design written by Lisa A. Baird and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2015-09-18 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humans’ first attempts to record their thoughts resulted in images painted in the decorated caves throughout Europe, known as Upper Paleolithic Art. As humans developed written alphabets to record their thoughts in words, the images they painted and the words they wrote competed for attention. As the “Sister Arts” tradition attests, words and pictures have developed along distinct, though related, lines. With the rise of New Media, however, the innovative inter-animation of words and pictures in the screen space of the computer deserves – and requires – artists and designers and rhetoricians to take a fresh look at the complexities of human communication, particularly the way in which words and pictures share commonalities. The range of image-texts, from cave to computer, from palimpsests to pixels, demands critical attention from modern designers who create innovative image-texts for New Media. Eloquent Design: Essays on the Rhetorics of Vision explores ancient image-making as a basis for understanding the modern uses of image-texts in New Media. Eloquent Design also considers the current state of imaginative design from the Sister Arts tradition to Gestalt theories of vision to social semiotics of image-texts. Moreover, Eloquent Design proposes a generative method for creating image-texts, a technique called “Rhetorical Vision.” Applications of the generative mode of Rhetorical Vision give rise to the innovative designs of palimpsests and experimental modes of writing, such as creative nonfiction. Essays in Eloquent Design outline a method for teaching Rhetorical Vision as the inter-animation of words and pictures.

  • Author : David Crow
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2022-08-11
  • ISBN : 135016495X
  • Pages : 208 pages

Download or read book Visible Signs written by David Crow and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-08-11 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Basic semiotic theories are taught in most art schools as part of a contextual studies program, but many students find it difficult to understand how these ideas might impact on their own practice. Visible Signs tackles this problem by introducing key theories and concepts, such as signs and signifiers, and language and speech, within the framework of visual communication. Each chapter provides an overview of a particular facet of semiotic theory, with inspiring examples from graphic design, typography, illustration, advertising and art to illustrate the ideas discussed in the text. Creative exercises at the end of the book will help exemplify these ideas through practical application. The fourth edition of Visible Signs includes new imagery and updated exercises, as well as coverage of propaganda, diversity in 'neutral' communication (like emojis), and issues related to social media representation.

Download or read book Spaces Domains and Meanings written by Per Aage Brandt and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 2004 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive Semiotics is a new discipline dedicated to the analysis of meaning. It combines cognitive linguistics and semantics with structural and dynamic semiotics, and seeks to elaborate a coherent framework for the study of language and thought, gesture and culture, discourse and text, art and symbolization in general. The essays of this book develop a semiotic elaboration of the theory of mental spaces, a grounding hypothesis of semantic domains, and the methodologically necessary idea of a mental architecture corresponding to the neural organization of our brain, and compatible with the basic facts of human phenomenology. This volume presents the author's recent research, carried out at the Aarhus center, where American and European approaches to language-based semantics have been meeting for a particularly inspiring decade.

  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 1994-06-25
  • ISBN : 9780226165011
  • Pages : 332 pages

Download or read book The Visible Word written by Johanna Drucker and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1994-06-25 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drucker skillfully traces the development of this critical position, suggesting a methodology closer to the actual practices of the early avant-garde artists based on a rereading of their critical and theoretical writings. After reviewing theories of signification, the production of meaning, and materiality, she analyzes the work of four poets active in the typographic experimentation of the 1910s and 1920s: Ilia Zdanevich, Filippo Marinetti, Guillaume Apollinaire, and Tristan Tzara. Drucker explores the context for experimental typography in terms of printing, handwriting, and other practices concerned with the visual representation of language. Her book concludes with a brief look at the ways in which experimental techniques of the early avant-garde were transformed in both literary work and in applications to commercial design throughout the 1920s and early 1930s.
