Horst Ruthrof argues, by contrast, that the body is an integral part of this hermeneutic activity." "Ruthrof reviews and analyses various 'orthodox' theories of meaning, from the views of Gottlob Frege at the beginning of the twentieth century to those of theorists in the postmodern period, then offers an alternative approach of his own. His theory features 'corporeal semantics, ' and holds that meaning has ultimately to do with the body and that the meaning of linguistic expressions is indeterminate without the aid of visual, tactile, olfactory, and other bodily signs. This approach also remedies what Ruthrof sees as a loss of interpretive will in the postmodern era." "Those involved in discourse analysis, literature, art criticism, film theory, pedagogy, and philosophy will find the implications of Ruthrof's study considerable."--Jacket. 588 0 Print version record. 650 0 Nonverbal communication. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85092368 650 0 Semantics. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2001008780 650 7 Nonverbal communication. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01039009 650 7 Semantics. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01112079 776 08 |iPrint version:Ruthrof, Horst. |tSemantics and the body. |dToronto ; Buffalo : University of Toronto Press, ©1997 |z9780802041517 |w(DLC) 98112198 |w(OCoLC)37196439 830 0 Toronto studies in semiotics 910 JSTOR DDA
