Paris School of Semiotics

The Paris School of Semiotics is an academic group focused on studying how meaning is created and communicated through signs, symbols, and language. It emphasizes understanding how cultural, social, and contextual factors influence interpretation. Founded in the 1960s by scholars like Algirdas Julien Greimas, it approaches texts, media, and everyday communication as systems of signs that can be analyzed to uncover deeper meanings. The school combines linguistics, anthropology, and philosophy to explore how humans interpret their world through signs, enriching our understanding of communication processes across various contexts.
