L’outil et l’ethos. Quand sémiotique, communication et organisation progressent dans l’application
2011
Organizations are made up of signs and meanings, open to interpretation, asmanifested in discourse, relationships, interactions, tools, systems, and in the work environmentitself. That is what makes semiotics such a useful approach. Yet it has taken many years to for therelationship between semiotics and organisational sciences to reach maturity. This paper retracesthe founding principles (I), the foundations (II), and the development (III) of this relationship,which today spurs expert interventions, in the form of consultancy and training courses.
Che cos'è il packaging
2014
Racchiudere e proteggere, descrivere e raccontare, coinvolgere e consigliare. Da semplici imballaggi, le confezioni dei prodotti si sono via via trasformate in oggetti di senso complessi, in grado di rispondere a molteplici esigenze comunicative, di marketing, logistiche e igieniche. Entrano nelle nostre case, riempiono gli spazi domestici, diventano molto spesso oggetti d'uso quotidiano. Ma che ne è del prodotto contenuto? Il volume illustra il modo in cui il pack lo racconta, lo valorizza, lo traduce, proponendosi come un'unità semiotica sempre nuova. rivolto a studenti di design e comunicazione, professionisti del branding, designer ed esperti di marketing, il testo offre una visione com…
Dire institutionnel et espaces de langage - le cas de l'Algérie - Essai d'une sémio-didactique
1992
This thesis is 1) an discourse analysis of the institution' texts (Algeria, in the eighties) + analysis of the young people in secondary school (part I) ; 2) a semiotic analysis of spaces in Algeria (country, village, secondary school). The results : we showed many contraints in a collective speech, through 2 dominant themas : time, action ; and 2 recessive themas : subject (speaker), mirror. So, education and didactic perspective are useful.
Sémiotique et pandémie : journal intime
2020
Au lieu d’une réflexion a posteriori sur la période de la pandémie Covid-19, je présente ici quelques extraits d’un journal que j’ai tenu pendant les mois plus tragiques (jusqu’à ce moment) du confinement. L’épiphanie du virus a modifié presque tout dans notre vie quotidienne, et une bonne partie de ce « tout » concerne spécifiquement la signification. D’où l’intérêt du sémioticien. Du point de vue médiatique, l’épidémie est une aubaine. La bad news qui est une good news. La malchance foudroyante qui rapporte énormément. Une nouvelle appétissante qui attire l’attention du public blasé, qui multiplie l’audience et avance – bien davantage que son objet – par contagion immédiate : tout le mond…
Traduzione e soggettività. Ancora su Pasolini e il cinema
2021
This paper reconstructs the debate raised by the thesis on cinema proposed by Pier Paolo Pasolini. In particular, two basic notions are addressed: the idea of cinema as a 'written language of reality' and the role of free indirect discourse for the establishment of a 'poetry cinema'. Pasolini is put into dialogue with Gilles Deleuze, Paolo Fabbri and other semiologists.
If you can’t be here, be here. Modalit e strategie della protesta online del movimento Black Lives Matter
2021
Eight minutes and forty-six seconds. This is the time in which the murder of George Floyd, in Minnesota, took place on 25 May 2020. A further act of institutionalized violence – granted, legitimized and overlooked by institutions – that made necessary for the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement to start a series of protests to draw attention to the abuse of power of a racist and corrupt system that highlights the breakdown of the social pact between people in a society. Beyond the ethical and political significance of the event, our contribution aims to reflect on the forms of occupation of the physical and virtual spaces through which BLM constitutes itself as a movement and organizes confli…
Migrant rap in the periphery : performing politics of belonging
2017
Focusing on a YouTube performance by an emergent Finnish Somali rapper and the audience responses it has generated, this paper looks at ways in which rap music engages with the issue of belonging. Drawing on recent theorizations of belonging as a multi-dimensional, contingent and fluid process, along with sociolinguistic work on globalization and superdiversity, Finnish hip hop culture and popular cultural practices in social media, the paper investigates how belonging is performatively and multi-semiotically interrogated in its online context. It shows how rap can serve as a significant site and channel for new voices in turbulent social settings characterized by rapid social change and co…
Mi descrivi il tuo disegno del Mattoncino Lego? Un’esperienza didattica di matematica nella scuola dell’infanzia
2018
La consapevolezza dell’importanza di guardare, attraverso una lente di tipo matematico, i disegni prodotti dai bambini, considerandoli come strumento diagnostico per quello che D’Amore et al. (2004) chiamano come il “Campo di Esperienza” Spazio, Ordine e Misura, ha dato spunto a questo contributo che discute una sperimentazione didattica condotta in una sezione di scuola dell’infanzia (5 anni). All’interno della stessa è stato chiesto ai bambini di rappresentare dei mattoncini Lego con un disegno, e di descrivere successivamente i propri elaborati rintracciando e argomentando in essi eventuali segni di scarto numerico-spaziali rispetto al mattoncino osservato/manipolato, attraverso visioni …

Imagery and Religious Conversion. The Symbolic Function of Jonah 1:13
2018
Jonah 1:13 has a delaying function in the narrative, introducing a pause between Jonah’s demand to be thrown in the sea (1:12) and the event’s occurrence (1:15). Most commentators discuss only the events of 1:13 and their causes. In this article, I suggest an interpretation of Jonah 1:13 based on the imagery of the narrative. An analysis of the use of metaphors and symbols does not replace the message of the verse; such an analysis simply augments it with motives of the seamen’s conversion. Beside the narrative level, there is a hidden level suggesting a deeper understanding of the story where symbols and metaphors have a consolidating function. Distance, directions, and movement in Jonah 1…
