Abstract

ARCINIEGAS RODRIGUEZ, WILLIAM  and  CAROLINA PENA, NATALIA. Semiotic considerations: an analysis of the definition of culture. Cuad. linguist. hisp. [online]. 2015, n.25, pp.99-121. ISSN 0121-053X.

All along the history of semiotic research, the concept of culture has been the dominant issue of many studies that allow us to build a wide spectrum of meanings for this term. Nevertheless, such definitions tend to limit this concept; for this reason, stating that there is a categorical unanimous definition of culture is daring. This article looks into different perspectives that have been used to approach this term, with the intention of contributing to the wide trans-disciplinary exploration of semiotic studies.

Keywords : research; culture; semiotics; communication.
