Next Five Days At Campus

I was sick in the middle of the course and went outside for long time. But I wrote the points about analysis structure in semiotics. Here there are ;)

Analyzing Structure

- Meaning arise from the differences between signifiers

- Differences: syntagmatics (positioning) and paradigmatic (subtitution/associative)

- Syntagmatic is horizontal, while paradihmatic is vertical

- Syntagm: combination of this and this and this

- Paradigm: selection of this or this or this

Syntagm and Paradigm

- Syntagm : possibilities of combination

- Paradigm : fuctional contrast involving differentiation

- Syntagm : intratextual and co-present

- Paradigm : intertextual to signifiers absent from the text

Value of the Sign

- Determined by paradigmatic and syntagmatic relations

- Syntagm and paradigm provide a structural context within which the signs make sense

- Paradigm operation : signifiers of signified

- A paradigm : a set of associated signifiers which are all members of defining category but in which each is significantly different.

- Grammatical paradigms: verbs, nouns, adjectives

The lecturer was coming late and asked us to write a summary about Connotation and Dennotation in chapter 3. Here is my work ;)

Connotations

- the sign can more accurately be pictured as having a spread of signifieds

- the set of its possible signifieds

- emphasises the plurality of the signifieds

The processes of connotation is the ways of generating a spread of signifieds around a given signifier. The processes are metaphor and metonymy.

Denotations

- the center of the field are the most stable meanings of the sign

- the most stable and apperantly verifiable of its connotations

- has concepts such as hegemony and legitimisation

The ways of denotation

- prevalent (attributed to the sign by a number of the codes in which it operates)

- dominant and particular

- objective or scientific codes

He also asked us to read the next chapter which is about Text and Textuality :)

Group 5 showed their opinion about online shop. I was coming late and confused about what was going on :o

This is the last two groups whose give presentation. The first group explained and showed their ability to sing Sundanese Pop Songs.
