Abstract
espanolEste articulo inicia a partir del analisis de una imagen de la cultura visual contemporanea masiva – que promociona una famosa marca de cafe–, con el proposito de sugerir que la “semiotica del velo” debe desarrollarse a manera de “semiotica de un velo”. Comprender el significado de este dispositivo cultural multifacetico requiere concebirlo no solo como un dispositivo general, sino tambien como un objeto singular. La semiotica, ciencia de los sistemas y las generalizaciones, debe, por lo tanto, potenciar su microanalisis con respecto al de otros tipos de herramientas. El articulo sostiene que la semiologia del velo de Gaetan Gatian de Clerambault ofrece una gran cantidad de ideas sobre los microsignificados que posee este elemento. Dicha afirmacion es aplicada a un estudio de caso: el microanalisis, a la maniere de Clerambault, del “sistema del velo” en la pelicula Una giornata particolare [Una jornada particular] (1977) del director Ettore Scola. English The article starts from the analysis of an image in contemporary mass visual culture — advertising a famous coffee brand — so as to suggest that the semiotics of the veil must develop as the semiotics of a veil. Understanding the meaning of this multifaceted cultural element requires grasping it not only as general device, but also as singular object. Semiotics, which is a science of systems and generalizations, must therefore empower its microanalysis with reference to other toolboxes. The article claims that Gaetan Gatian de Clerambault’s semiology of the veil offers a wealth of insights about the micro–significations of the veil. Such claim is applied to a case study: the micro–analysis, a la maniere de Clerambault, of the “system of the veil” in Ettore Scola’s movie Una giornata particolare [A Special Day] (1977).
