Reading Time: 3 minutesIdentiteet Identiteet kujutab endast seda, kuidas inimesed end defineerivad ja väljendavad ning on mitmekülgne ja muutuv nähtus. Ehala (2018: 16) toob välja, et nii nagu kõneldes, edastab inimene ka oma käitumise ja olekuga identiteedisignaale, mille põhjal teevad teised järeldusi tema uskumuste, hoiakute ja eeldatava käitumise kohta, muutes identiteedi mõneti sarnaseks märgiga. Rahvusidentiteeti määratletakse läbi mitmete […]

Reading Time: 5 minutesTshinar-Kristi Shahmardan Mitmekeelsus Mitmekeelsus ja mitmekeelsuse teema on mulle isiklikult tähtsad, kuna kasvasin mitmekeelses perekonnas ja selle tulemusena olen ka ise mitmekeelne. Tihti kohtab mitmekeelsust just mitmekultuurilise taustaga peredes ning nõnda võib juhtuda, et ühte isikusse või peresse koonduvad eri keeled ja kultuurid. Tänapäeval räägitakse mitmekeelsusest üha rohkem, küllap seetõttu, et mitmekeelseid ja mitmekultuurilisi peresid […]

Reading Time: 3 minutesIngrid Udeküll Kui Arno isaga koolimajja jõudis… – ei see on küll vale algus… Ja semiootik ei ole ma ka tegelikult… Minu lugu algab nii: kui teised kõik veel oma suvevaheaja viimaseid päevi nautisid, olid minu päevad täis semiootikat. Üks päev istusin vanematekodus köögilaua taga ja lugesin meile – üks, hiljem vägagi oluliseks muutuv, intrigeeris […]

Reading Time: 18 minutesThis paper aims at providing a critical analysis of the video game “Persona 3”, examining the resemiotization and intersemiotics involved, in order to construct an intricate narrative, and build a new world. The plethora of cultural elements, and mythologies from all around the world, in combination with Carl Jung’s psychoanalytic, and the complex game-play, provide a unique experience for the player that can be perfectly analyzed under the light of semiotics. This video game could work as an example to illustrate and explain different notions of semiotics; beyond that, this dissertation could be the basis of further research that will, hopefully, contribute in the field of Semiotics of Video Games.
