This transdisciplinary study (involving humanities, anthropology, linguistics, and philosophy) contrasts the reductionist ideological “top-down” focus on the construction of our cultural “world” with the meandering technical “bottom-up” approach, searching for forgotten or usually omitted aspects in current studies of culture. The discovery goes from the cultural “thing theory” to semiotics, to communication, and to the emergence of human language from the biosemiotic and zoosemiotic processes of communication, in order to examine the impact of these processes on human culture and cultural theories. Finally, based on “heretical ideas” of Jan Patočka and Martin Heidegger, some philosophical implications for the new humanism and for humanities are outlined.

The article situates the phenomenon of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz (1651–1695) within the myth of the “return of the caravels,” invented from the Spanish American side as a proof of parity with the former “Mother Country,” achieved apparently towards the end of the 19th century. However, “caravels” were “returning” much earlier. Based on the author’s book La mujer que quiso ser amada por Dios (The Woman who Wanted to be Loved by God, 2016) and on recent archival discoveries, the study then focuses on the Mexican nun, the history of her publications in Spain during her lifetime, and the consequences of the historical entanglements of her supporters for her literary heritage; finally, it takes to task the surprising generalized shortcomings of the sorjuanista criticism, among others, reading her work out of its internal (“genetic”) and external contexts, and not having asked some most elemental questions about her works in both the modern and the ancient editions.

In the introduction to this article, the author recalls his relationship with Miroslav Cervenka. He then recapitulates several Czech attempts at typology of the 'metre types' of Jiri Levy, Roman Jakobson, and Josef Hrabak, and recalls how Cervenka dealt with them in the late 1960s. In the next part of the article, he describes Spanish syllabotonic writing, which, he argues, confirms Cervenka's interpretation of the syllabotonic-writing code.

The essay argues for broader understanding of “ostension”, introduced into semiotics by Ivo Osolsobě and Umberto Eco, in a gamut going from the “ostensive” (biosemiotic) language, through “ostensive definition” and showing of an “object” or a “thing” as a part of human communication, to symbolic transformation of something/somebody into a sign of something else. This broader concept permits, then, a subtler view of (theatrical) communication, semiotics, semiosis, and the very phenomenon of processes covered by “ostension”.

The essay considers different aspects of Kafka’s influence on Latin American literature and culture. It focuses on the concept of ‘influence’ and its interpretation in Borges, on the modalities of the absurd, and on the vexing confusions around the concept of ‘magic realism’.
