• The Image of the World Revealed In Words: Ludwig Wittgenstein and The Iсonic Semiotics

  The article discusses an alternative version of semiotics in which the process of semiosis is based not on metonymic symbolization (substitution), when one entity stands for another, but on the metaphorical (iconic) representation.

This relation is understood as a construed one rather than something determined by physical similarity. The basis ...

The surface level of linguistic consciousness is the focus of paronomasic connections between words in dream descriptions. Deeper levels are targeted by semantic mechanisms: associative, metaphorical, and metonymical ones. In these conditions, of special importance is the interpretation of symbols. These mechanisms serve as the basis for C. G. Jung’s method of dream interpretation. 1. Кубрякова Е. С. Парадигмы ...
