Invention of Global Semiotics(the)

This volume brings together studies and commentaries on the movement known as "global semiotics," initiated and sustained by one of greatest semioticians and intellectuals of the twentieth century, Thomas A. Sebeok. The studies in it not only pay tribute to Sebeok's broad-ranging influence on the development of semiotics, but they also bring out the central themes and notions that he has introduced into the field - all of which have made semiotics a truly global enterprise. Marcel Danesi lives in Toronto, Ontario.
