Zustand: new. Pages: 158 Language: Estonian. Raamat esitab sissejuhatuse ökosemiootikasse ja näitab selle asjakohasust tänapäeva ebastabiilsete kultuuri ja looduse suhete uurimisel. Ökosemiootikat võib defineerida kui nende märgiprotsesside uurimist, millest ökoloogilised nähtused sõltuvad. Mõtisklusi esitatakse teoses kolmes etapis, ammutades inspiratsiooni nii humanitaarteadustest kui ka bioloogiast. Esimeses peatükis selgitatakse märkide vahendatud suhete mitmekesisust, ulatust ja mõju looduskeskkonnas, alates üksikindiviidi tasandist kuni ökosüsteemi funktsioneerimiseni. Teises peatükis näidatakse eri viise, kuidas eelkeelelised semiootilised suhted on osa kultuurist ning osutatakse kahjulikele keskkonnamõjudele, mille toovad kaasa enesesse sulgunud ja pelgalt sümbolipõhised märgisüsteemid. Kolmandas peatükis selgub, kuidas mudelitele ja modelleerimisele keskenduv ökosemiootiline analüüs suudab efektiivselt kaardistada tekstide ja looduskeskkonna suhteid või tuua esile nende puudumise ning kuidas saab seda lähenemist loominguliselt kasutada, et panna alus keskkonnasõbralikele kultuurivormidele ja -praktikatele. Käesolev teos on ökosemiootika esimene raamatu mahus tutvustus eesti keeles. 9789985589229.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This Element provides an accessible introduction to ecosemiotics -the study of sign processes responsible for ecological phenomena - and demonstrates its pertinence for the study of today's unstable culture-nature relations. It considers the diverse nature of influences, cultural connections and models associated with ecosemiotics.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The book is the first annotated reader to focus specifically on the discipline of zoosemiotics. Zoosemiotics can be defined today as the study of signification, communication and representation within and across animal species. The name for the field was proposed in 1963 by the American semiotician Thomas A. Sebeok. He also established the framework for the paradigm by finding and tightening connections to predecessors, describing terminology, developing methodology and setting directions for possible future studies.The volume includes a wide selection of original texts accompanied by editorial introductions. An extensive opening introduction discusses the place of zoosemiotics among other sciences as well as its inner dimensions; the understanding of the concept of communication in zoosemiotics, the heritage of biologist Jakob v. Uexküll; contemporary developments in zoosemiotics and other issues. Chapter introductions discuss the background of the authors and selected texts, as well as other relevant texts.The selected texts cover a wide range of topics, such as semiotic constitution of nature, cognitive capabilities of animals, typology of animal expression and many other issues. The roots of zoosemiotics can be traced back to the works of David Hume and John Locke. Great emphasis is placed on the heritage of Thomas A. Sebeok, and a total of four of his essays are included. The Reader also includes influential studies in animal communication (honey bee dance language, vervet monkey alarm calls) as well as theory elaborations by Gregory Bateson and others. The reader concludes with a section dedicated to contemporary research. Readings in Zoosemiotics is intended as a primary source of information about zoosemiotics, and also provides additional readings for students of cognitive ethology and animal communication studies.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The present book analyses critically the tripartite mimicry model (consisting of the mimic, model and receiver species) and develops semiotic tools for comparative analysis. It is proposed that mimicry has a double structure where sign relations in communication are in constant interplay with ecological relations between species. Multi-constructivism and toolbox-like conceptual methods are advocated for, as these allow taking into account both the participants' Umwelten as well as cultural meanings related to specific mimicry cases.From biosemiotic viewpoint, mimicry is a sign relation, where deceptively similar messages are perceived, interpreted and acted upon. Focusing on living subjects and their communication opens up new ways to understand mimicry. Such view helps to explain the diversity of mimicry as well as mimicry studies and treat these in a single framework. On a meta-level, a semiotic view allows critical reflection on the use of mimicry concept in modern biology.The author further discusses interpretations of mimicry in contemporary semiotics, analyses mimicry as communicative interaction, relates mimicry to iconic signs and focuses on abstract resemblances in mimicry. Theoretical discussions are illustrated with detailed excursions into practical mimicry cases in nature (brood parasitism, eyespots, myrmecomorphy, etc.). The book concludes with a conviction that mimicry should be treated in a broader semiotic-ecological context as it presumes the existence of ecological codes and other sign conventions in the ecosystem.

Zustand: new. Pages: 564 Language: Estonian. "Semiootika" 3. trükk. Tähendustemaailm on keskkond, milles me möödapääsmatult iga päev elame ja osaleme. Semiootika ülesandeks pole mitte üksnes orienteeruda kõikvõimalikes tähendustasandites ja märgilisuse tüüpides, vaid ka tähendusloome praktikates, mis kultuuri ja kogu elu kujundavad. Käesolev raamat on esimesi eestikeelseid semiootika õpikuid, mis püüab pakkuda võimalikult terviklikku käsitlust. Raamatu sissejuhatavale peatükile, milles esitatakse lühidalt semiootika määratlus ja tähtsamad allikad, järgnevad neli osa. Esimene neist annab ülevaate semiootika ajaloost ja peamistest koolkondadest. Teine osa on pühendatud semiootika klassikutele: siinses valikus Charles S. Peirce, Ferdinand de Saussure, Jakob von Uexküll, Charles Morris, Roman Jakobson, Algirdas Greimas, Juri Lotman, Umberto Eco, Thomas Sebeok. Kolmas osa on ülevaade kolmest olulisest semiootika valdkonnast - kultuuri-, sotsio- ja biosemiootikast. Neljandas osas esitatakse sissejuhatused reasse semiootika harudesse ja rakendusaladesse. Oma nägemuse klassikutest ja semiootika kujunemisest vormis piltideks semiootikust kunstnik Rauno Thomas Moss. Opiku lõpus on toodud peamiste mõistete lühiseletused, samuti nimede ja terminite indeksid ning põhjalik bibliograafia. Kuigi raamat on eeskätt mõeldud abivahendiks semiootikatudengitele, on selle koostamisel ja kirjutamisel silmas peetud ka laiemat lugejaskonda.
