In the last ten years several disciplines, including philosophy, linguistics, anthropology, sociology, and psychology, have selected emotions or passions as their object of analysis. In what might be construed as a reaction to the abstractions (or disconnectedness) of theory, certain practitioners have now decided to explore whether various productions of the body can be folded into the space of epistemology. In "The Semiotics of Passion", Greimas and Fontanille explore the possibility that so-called subjective states - affect, feeling, emotion, passion, avarice, honour, and jealousy - and their multiple mediations can have a semiotic existence. The authors examine such questions as: What are the conditions for the existence of passion? Can passion be submitted to a logic of language? Does passion allow systemic semiotic transformations? Starting from the premise that a meaningful world involves the "subject" in the "state of affairs", Greimas's and Fontanille's investigation of the complex "psychic states" of speaking subjects takes them through texts in philosophy and literature from the 17th to the 20th century. Exploring the work of Descartes, Spinoza, Shakespeare, and Proust, among others, "The Semiotics of Passion" will advance and refine semiotics in general and literary semiotics in particular. A.J. Greimas (1917-1992) was professor of general semantics at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales in Paris. His theoretical work on structures of discourse has been seminal for many semioticians. He was the author of many books in French and Lithuanian. Jacques Fontanille is professor of linguistics and semiotics at the University of Limoges and co-director of the seminar in general semantics at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales in Paris.

As such, the spine is straight and square, binding tight, and is internally clean and NOT marked or highlighted. 239 pages. Forward by Paul Perron and Paolo Fabbri. Translated by Paul Perron and Frank Collins. Quoted in relevant part from the back cover: "In recent years, the disciplines of philosophy, linguistics, anthropology, sociology, and psychology have increasingly focused on the states of emotion and passion. In what many consider a reaction to the abstraction of theory, certain scholars have now decided to explore whether various productions of the body can be folded into the space of epistemology. In this powerful and thought-provoking investigation of the multifaceted complexity of literary object-semiotics, Algirdas Julien Greimas and Jacques Fontanille explore the possibility that so-called subjective states - affect, feeling, emotion, passion, avarice, honor and jealousy - and their multiple mediations can have a semiotic existence. The Semiotics of Passions raises provocative questions: What are the necessary conditions for the existence of passion? Can passion be submitted to a logic of language? Does passion allow systemic semiotic transformations? Starting from the premise that a meaningful world involves the 'subject' in the 'stateof arrairs,' Greimas's and Fontanille's investigation of complex 'psychic states' takes them through texts in philosophy and literature from the seventeenth to the twentieth century, including the works of Descartes, Spinoza, Shakespeare, and Proust. Singular in its approach to this fascinating topic, The Semiotics of Passions will advance and refine semiotics in general and literary semiotics in particular." SHIPS from Eugene, Oregon, USA.
