Abstract
My ambition with this paper is to throw some light on Charles S. Peirce's (1839–1914) semiotic model of learning. Peirce developed this model in his later writings, where he integrated his phenomenology, pragmatism, and semiotics while renewing all three. I start by introducing an analogy on pedagogy used by Peirce in one of his 1903 lectures on phenomenology. Next, I sketch out Peirce's perspective on the ways in which we learn from experience. In the last section, I map out Peirce's semiotic model, while indicating some prospects and limitations of a Peircean outlook on the paradoxical attributions of knowledge and learning.

The paper aims to give a comprehensive cognitive and semiotic analysis of translation strategies implied in the translation of the film "Darkest Hour". Regarding a film as a communicative process mediated by certain semiotic features makes it possible to analyze the semiotic character of film discourse in translation. Thus, it was decided that translation is not just a speech-oriented process but a communicative act taking place within a definite semiotic space in a cross-cultural perspective. The semiotic model of cinematic discourse has a complicated structure and is analyzed based on semantic, syntactic, and pragmatic criteria. The choice of the semiotic system primarily depends on the communicative situation and its recipients. As the semiotic system of the film "Darkest Hour" is both socioculturally and situationally conditioned, the translator reconstructed the sense of the source language text by implying the translation transformations that assured the accuracy and adequacy of its translation into the target language text.

II est fait, le plus souvent, un usage sélectif et non-systématique de l'analogie du jeu en droit. Cette critique s'applique autant à Hart qu'à Huizinga, l'un et. l'autre sélectionnant, pour les besoins de la comparaison, des traits différents du jeu, qu'il est cependant possible d'articuler à une même échelle évolutionniste. D'autres adoptent un modèle structuraliste (Erhmann) ou naturaliste (Midgley) pour présenter les jeux. L'étude de ces différents textes révèle, mieux que ne le ferait la présentation d'un auteur unique, (a) le faisceau des diverses caractéristiques du jeu et (b) les problèmes épistémologiques que suscite leur discussion. On suggérera que l'utilisation de concepts sémiotiques peut contribuer à clarifier autant la nature de l'analogie ludique que certaines de ses manifestations concrètes.

The article explores literary communication as one of the types of linguistic communica­tion. The main objective is to develop a linguo-aesthetic model of literary communication based on the models of the sign, semiosis and communication adopted in linguistics, semiotics and poetics. The author employs semiotic methods of modelling the sign and communication, developed in the works of Frege, Peirce, Shpet, Mukařovsky, Jakobson, Lotman, Eco, Novikov, and Zolyan. The emphasis is laid on the models of the sign and the corresponding models of semiosis in relation to literary systems. The concept of literary communication is given a new definition; it refers to the interaction of the author as an artist and the reader (viewer, listen­er) through a message or an utterance as a work of art. A correlation is established between the structure of the literary sign and the structure of the act of literary communication. The linguo-aesthetic model of artistic communication reflects the correspondence between types of literary signs and elements of communication.

This book reveals the core features of digital culture, examined by means of semiotic models and theories. It positions commercial and market principles in the center of the digital semiosphere, avoiding the need to force the new cultural reality into the established textualist or pragmatist paradigms. The theoretic insights and case studies presented here argue for new semiotic models of inquiry that include working with big data, user experience and nethnography, along with conventional approaches. The book develops a new concept of identity in the digital age, analyzing the digital flows of recognition and value, which led to the tremendous success of Social Media and the Web 2.0 era. Self-expression, entertainment and consumerism are seen as the major drivers of identity formation in the post-truth era, where the self can no longer be considered independently of a given person's communication devices, where a substantial part of it is stored and actualized. It will be of interest to semioticians and researchers working on digital culture

Written by experts in interpretive sociology, this volume examines semiotic models in a sociological context. Contributors offer case studies to demonstrate how to do things with semiotics. Synthesizing a diverse and fragmented landscape, this is a key reference work for understanding the connection between semiotics and sociology
