Abstract
RESUMO A confrontação entre o modelo da semiosfera, a teoria greimasiana e a antropologia contemporânea coloca em evidência a dificuldade de se implementar uma epistemologia da diversidade a partir da obra de Lotman. Essa dificuldade leva a questionar sistematicamente as condições necessárias para uma enunciação antropológica, convocando em particular as posições de Descola, Latour e Viveiros de Castro. Esta confrontação busca atualizar o modelo de semiosfera.
Highlights
The confrontation between the model of semiosphere, the Greimassian theory and contemporary anthropology highlights the difficulty of implementing an epistemology of diversity starting from Lotman's work
The stake is not small, and goes well beyond the limited ambition of this contribution: so, what would be discussed here is only identifying the specific and restrictive conditions allowing to recognize today a renewed, but circumscribed, scientific validity to the semiosphere model, and to relate these conditions to those, more general, which base the possibility of anthropological enunciation and discourse
This last mention is already a delimitation to our investigation: by focusing on the conditions required for an enunciation to take place and produce interpretable semiosis, do we touch the very heart of the epistemology of the anthropological dimension, but we take a position on the type of semiotics that seems most appropriate for us to approach the confrontation between Lotman's semiosphere and other types of approaches
Summary
The dialogue proposed here, between the semiotic theory of Lotman, the one resulting from Greimas’ work, and the actualized positions of contemporary anthropology, aims to identify in Lotman's semiosphere model the properties that would allow access to a more general anthropo-semiotic dimension. The stake is not small, and goes well beyond the limited ambition of this contribution: so, what would be discussed here is only identifying the specific and restrictive conditions allowing to recognize today a renewed, but circumscribed, scientific validity to the semiosphere model, and to relate these conditions to those, more general, which base the possibility of anthropological enunciation and discourse This last mention is already a delimitation to our investigation: by focusing on the conditions required for an enunciation to take place and produce interpretable semiosis, do we touch the very heart of the epistemology of the anthropological dimension, but we take a position on the type of semiotics that seems most appropriate for us to approach the confrontation between Lotman's semiosphere and other types of approaches. It is in this sense that we can speak of anthropological or anthroposemiotic enunciation: this is the way in which human collectives manage to create and establish the worlds in which they are likely to find, to project or to construct the meaning of their lives, of their practices and of their interactions, especially with their environments
