"Embodiment" e linguaggio: funzione segnica e soglia semiotica
In the last decades, by virtue of the overcoming of the Saussurean vulgata, especially after the publication of the Ecrits de linguistique générale, the reflections on the double essence of the language has revealed the inadequacy of the dichotomies from which classical structuralism arose. In this new context, the couples nature/culture, langue/parole, synchrony/diachrony, syntagmatic/associative etc. appear as methodological premises or as antinomies which have to be understood in dialectical terms, so that they cannot be solved, but only pragmatically composed.
