Semiotic Evolution and the Dynamics of Culture

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2004

  • Publisher: Peter Lang

This book is about patterns of development in the history of culture. Bringing together three areas of research: semiotics, cultural history, and evolutionary psychology, it attempts to bridge the gap that still separates the study of culture from the cognitive sciences. The multidisciplinary approach chosen by the contributors derives its impetus from the deep conviction that in order to understand the logic of cultural development, one must take the building blocks of culture, that is, signs and language, as a starting point for research. Central issues related to patterns of cultural evolution are dealt with in contributions on the development of mind and culture, the history of the media, the diversity of sign systems, culture and code, and the dynamics of semiosis. Theoretically oriented contributions alternate with in-depth case studies on such diverging topics as the evolution of language and art in prehistory, ritual as the fountainhead of indirect communication, developments in renaissance painting, the evolution of classification systems in chemistry, changing attitudes toward animal consciousness, and developments in computer technology.

Emiley In the End, Who is Innocent?

Emiley Township is a unique rural town in southwest Louisiana, not far from the Texas border. It’s a small town with a wide variety in populace, from the liberals to an ultra-conservative town patron, to the Native American reservation on the edge of town and the small coven of witches who reside in the area. Despite their differences, everyone gets along—or at least tolerates one another. And although trouble has visited this little town from time to time, Sheriff Jon Beeville and his staff manage to keep the peace. But when Sheriff Beeville returns from a well-deserved vacation in San Francisco, he learns that a horrific murder has just taken place. His investigation leads to an unbelievable series of events, and an eclectic cast of characters contributes to the saga, including its disturbing end… Sheriff Beeville has many alleys and valleys to travel in order to unravel what has transpired and, most importantly, to determine who is really innocent…
