This paper deals with Otakar Zich's concept of the 'semantic image'. The author analyses Zich's aesthetical studies to observe changes in his interpretation of this concept over time. On the basis of the thinking regarding this concept, Zich began to differentiate between semiotic layers of a work of art. So, we can consider him the forerunner of Czech semiotic thinking, with regards to art theory and aesthetics.

Otakar Zich's opera Vina [Guilt] met with contentious criticism at its premiere in 1922. Nevertheless, its score demonstrates many of the concepts of musico-dramatic narrative outlined in his seminal text, The Aesthetics of Dramatic Art, specifically that of multivocality – the multiple modes of communication perceived through time in continuous unfolding. Vina also employs concepts of silence and sound that resonate with Vladimir Jankélévitch's Music and the Ineffable.

In his essay "Sémiotika sémiotika Otakara Zicha" (Otakar Zich's Semiotics, 1981), Ivo Osolsobě seeks to illuminate one of Zich's most troubling and mysterious terms: 'významová představa' (semantic image). For Osolsobě, it "is a complex, liminal, and interdisciplinary phenomenon about which a substantial body of studies has been written, though a majority of which only hardly touched the problem: a systematic treatise on the phenomenon is still missing." Nonetheless, Osolsobě succumbs to the theorist's temptation and ventures into the investigation of the term and, following Mukařovský's 'semiotization' of aesthetics, finds a relevant connection with C. S. Peirce's semiotic notion of 'interpretant' which, in Osolsobě's view, resonates with Zich's notion of the semantic visual image. Surprisingly (or mysteriously) though, Osolsobě does not find in Peirce's vast work any corresponding mirror term for Zich's signifying technical image. In my paper, I try to re-read Zich via Peirce and vice versa and suggest a potential solution for the notion which strangely fell overboard while being transported across the Atlantic.

The essay employs the concept of the 'semantic image' as articulated by Czech aesthetician Otakar Zich in his book The Aesthetics of Dramatic Art in order to outline how theatre publicity relates to theatre production and performance. Theatre graphics, posters, and other promotional materials contain images that substitute or compensate for what is not to be seen and heard onstage in form of 'technical images'; thus, these graphics condition the 'representational images' of dramatic locations.1 Publicity images can be also used to manipulate imagery associations related to actors as well as dramatic characters in order to facilitate their desired reception. This article focuses on the posters produced for Prague's National Theatre opera production of Tramvestie (2019) and two stagings of Peter Shaffer's Equus (1973, 2007) along with Alphonse Mucha's posters for Sarah Bernhardt.
