The aim of the present study is to describe the theatrical environment in Ostrava where the identity of the region as a (former) mining power is performed on stage more than often. Central to the study is the analysis of an autobiographic novel Pestré vrstvy (Motley Layers) by an ex-miner Ivan Landsmann, adapted for stage by dramaturg Tomáš Vůjtek, and produced by director Janusz Klimsza in the underground mine Důl Hlubina. The key for the analysis is Yuri Lotman’s concept of signs pervading different cultural layers. The production was premiered in May 2011 and withdrawn in June 2014.

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 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”.

This article discusses Kenneth Burke’s theory of the symbol, which considers the use of the sign as a specifically human activity associated with the formation of meaning. In Burke’s view, the symbol is a meaning-making device that can influence human action and thoughts, and therefore represents the key to understanding the nature of human communication. In this article, Burke’s ideas are compared to other sign-symbol theories — namely, the semiotics of Umberto Eco and Juri Lotman, Charles Sanders Peirce’s semeiotics, as well as Ernst Cassirer’s philosophy of symbolic forms —, with analysis on the way each of these theorists defines the nature of the symbol and its conventional acceptation, principle of identification, and the characteristics of the symbolisation process itself.

In his treatment of the aesthetics of music, Roger Scruton offers a relevant concept of the meaning of music, one which amounts to a philosophically tenable alternative to the semiotic theories of musical semantics. This study aims at surmounting the problematic status of Scruton’s theory with its lack of a systematic, exhaustive approach to the subject of musical meaning, and through analysis of Scruton’s musical-aesthetic texts draws up a definition of Scruton’s approach to the meaning of music. To achieve this, the present text employs two methodological procedures making it possible to reveal the key characteristics of Scruton’s approach. The first of these consists in a reconstruction of Scruton’s critique of the semiotics of music. There, the meaning of music emerges as a metaphorical phenomenon which is perceived by the listener in a work of music per se. The second characteristic relates to Scruton’s approach to musical experience. This is understood to be a specific case of aesthetic experience, which delineates the field of the listener’s musical understanding of a performed work of music. Here, the meaning of music is presented as the object of the listener’s musical understanding, whose constitution is based on the metaphoric and intentional processuality of the aesthetic experience of music. These observations lead the author to the conclusion that the meaning of music is a quality of metaphorical expression by which the listener gets a non-conceptual reminder, at the moment of their aesthetic contact with a work of music, of crucial aspects of their own existence.

Roger Scruton ve svém hudebně estetickém díle přichází s nosnou koncepcí hudebního významu, kterou je třeba vnímat jako filosoficky udržitelnou alternativu vůči sémiotickým teoriím hudebního znamenání. Studie se pokouší překonat problematické postavení Scrutonovy teorie, v níž absentuje systematicky vyčerpávající pojednání o tématu hudebního významu, a prostřednictvím rozborů Scrutonových hudebně estetických textů nabízí definici Scrutonova pojetí hudebního významu. Za tímto účelem studie využívá dva metodologické postupy, jejichž prostřednictvím odhaluje základní rysy Scrutonovy koncepce. Prvním z nich je rekonstrukce Scrutonovy kritiky hudební sémiotiky. Hudební význam se tu ukazuje jako metaforický fenomén, jejž posluchač nekonceptuálně zachycuje v díle samotném. Druhým je výklad Scrutonova pojetí hudební zkušenosti. Tato zkušenost je specifickým případem zkušenosti estetické a vyznačuje pole posluchačova hudebního porozumění znějícímu hudebnímu dílu. Hudební význam je zde představen coby předmět posluchačova hudebního porozumění, jehož konstituce spočívá na metaforicko-intencionální procesualitě hudebně-estetické zkušenosti. Prostřednictvím těchto poznatků studie dospívá k závěru, že hudební význam je metaforickou expresí, která posluchače v momentě jeho estetického kontaktu s dílem nekonceptuálně upomíná na základní aspekty jeho vlastní existence.

This study aims to reconstruct the impact of information theory (and cybernetics) on literary theory (semiotics) during the 1950s and 1960s, as well as the directions in which the same paradigm came to inspire 1960s Czech experimental poetry. Given the limitations of information theory vis-à-vis some crucial questions of communication, what was the foundation of this inspiration? The first part of the study concentrates on various important modifications of the paradigm in the context of information aesthetics (Max Bense), information poetics (Umberto Eco) and structuralist literary theory (Miroslav Červenka). The second part explores the position of the ‘information’ current within the context of 1960s Czech experimental poetry, including its avant-garde antecedents. The third part focuses on the experimental texts of Zdeněk Barborka, whose work is notable for being situated at the crossroads of several different tendencies. Finally, the study raises the question concerning the deeper implications of the ‘information moment’, with the suggestion that they might be found in the context of the development of media (communication) technologies as well as the genealogy of the media discourse, which emerges at this ‘moment’ from its prehistory to enter into its actual historical phase.

This text provides a critical analysis and assessment of Charles Goodwin’s theory of co-operative action. First, it characterizes Goodwin’s distinctive research style, analyzing his specific way of presenting research findings, as well as drawing on memoir and biographical texts and published interviews. This distinction lies in: a) a strong emphasis on the collection and analysis of empirical data, b) the use of video data, c) the original presentation of data and analysis in collages/assemblages of transcripts, images and analytical commentary, d) a holistic, integrative and interdisciplinary approach to the research object, e) the inclusion of ethnographic knowledge in the analysis, and f) an axiomatic style of thinking. Then the text introduces the conceptual architecture of the theory of co-operative action and discusses the contributions of this theory to the field of (linguistic) anthropology, particularly to questions about the origins of language, the historical diversification of languages and cultures, the situated nature of communication, the distribution of knowledge, and the formation of competent members of cultural communities. It concludes that Goodwin’s theoretical insights have the potential to shape the future of not only linguistic anthropology, but also interactionally-oriented linguistics.
