- “Introduction to semiotics II” as the second basic introductory, founding MA course is built upon “Introduction to semiotics I”. The purpose here is to enlarge and deepen students’ knowledge of the history and theory of semiotics. Preference is given to the definition of basic concepts and the explanation of the use of semiotic terminology in the context of semiotic subdisciplines. The focus of attention is cultural semiotics and current theories seen from a historical perspective, beginning with Russian Formalism. The disciplinary identity of literary semiotics is also put in center stage. Semiotics is also conceived in its relation to system studies and is examined in terms of practical methodological tools.
