History of media, sign systems, cultural codesAbstract
There is a well known tradition refering to the social history of media based on the development of media in culture and in its effects on the social relationship scenary. That is the history focused on the set of technological inventions and its efficiency as means of communication. In the context of this approach there is no place to the study of language interaction. There are so many question we can put here and to consider as the main aim of this essay. The main question is: is there a place to sign in the social history of media? If we answer yes, another question should be considered: which is that place? In fact, the main point of this argumentation concern to the need of understanding not the history of media in general but the history of cultural codes in the process of mediation.Downloads
