I discuss the relation of linguistics and semiotics on the basis of the Old Russian discourse particle TI1 ‘indeed’, ‘verily’, ‘truly’ discovered by Andrej A. Zaliznjak in 1993. Linguistics and semiotics are different research programmes: the first one deals with specific features ...

The development of artificial intelligence and the new understanding of biomolecular processes for transmitting genetic information have emphasized the necessity to consider semiotic activity, that may operate autonomously from human cognition. In this regard, Charles Peirce’s latest conception of semiosis is of particular interest. For Peirce, semiosis is an interpretation that doesn't necessitate an external interpreter....

This article demonstrates that the concept proposed by Alexander Spirov reflects the ongoing paradigm shift and inspires new approaches in biosemiotics and semiotic pragmatics. The shift involves a move from describing coding languages to describing languages that regulate them. This requires considering the agentivity (or quasi-subjectivity) of sign systems, which leads to a scenario where the sign system ...

The article aims to illustrate the inadequacy of viewing semiotics as a mere extension of linguistic methods applied to non-linguistic objects. It highlights the dual and recursive na­ture of semiotic terms. Semiotics' objects are not independent signs but rather the processes involved in establishing sign ...

... recursion with inversive switching. The next step is to use this model to interpret and understand the pragmatic moment as the active beginning of meaning-making and communication. The radical expansion of pragmatics extends it beyond the bounds of semiotics proper, enabling it to be conceived as a virtually boundless sphere of human action—or more broadly, of universal agency. In this capacity, the expanding sphere of effective meaning-making is no longer reducible to practices and analytical ...

... authors, petroleum acts as a radical expression of the logic of non-translation: it is a condensed memory of antiquity, which cannot be directly accessed; its mystery cannot be revealed because, in a sense, it contains no mystery. Such a paradoxical semiotics leads all three authors to the idea that petroleum is alien to the human world and has a special inhuman agency. Ahmadov, R., 2019.

... text/meaning-generating capacity of the new communication channel, the language of digital texts' literary meta-description and the limits of freedom in interpret­ing such volatile texts. This article attempts to answer these and other questions, providing a semiotic understanding of communication in the tech environment. It also proffers the idea of new pragmatics as the effect of volatile polycode digital text, interface and reception trajec­tory. It is shown that the instability of the digital channel ...

... both in state initiatives and in local commercial names. Particular attention is paid to protest movements (from 1988 to 2022), in which the street acts as a space for the articulation of collective subjectivity. Methodologically, the work draws on the semiotics of space, the anthropology of the city and the theory of representation (including Lefebvre), examining how material and symbolic practices conflict, coexist and shape ‘place’ in the anthropological sense. The article offers an interpretation ...

... 2005 and 2023. It was found that situational-discursive demonstrativeness is a communicative tonality characterized by the speaker’s self-presentation, exaggeration of their significant qualities, and emphasis on dominant emotions, expressed through semiotic multimodality, which varies depending on the type of activity and the situational requirements of communication. In both personal and institutional discourses, communicative demonstrativeness is realized through a stable set of lexical and phraseological ...
