Semiotic theory can, however, appear mysterious and impenetrable. This introductory book decodes that mystery using visual examples instead of abstract theory. This new edition features an expanded introduction that carefully and clearly presents the world of semiotics before leading into the book's 76 sections of key semiotic concepts. Each short section begins with a single image or sign, accompanied by a question inviting us to interpret what we are seeing. Turning the page, we can compare our response with the theory behind the sign, and in this way, actively engage in creative thinking. A fascinating read, this book provides practical examples of how meaning is made in contemporary culture. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Semiotics.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85119950 650 0 Signs and symbols.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85122415 650 7 Semiotics.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1112351 650 7 Signs and symbols.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1118355 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aHall, Sean.|tThis means this, this means that.|b2nd ed.|dLondon : Laurence King Pub., 2012 |z1780672136 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=926138|zOnline eBook.
