{"product_id":"semiosic-translation-sergio-torres-martnez-9798314359433","title":"Semiosic Translation: Embodied Cognition, Semiotics, and the Dynamics of Meaning-Making","description":"This new edition of a book on translation from a semiotic standpoint celebrates ten years of\u003ci\u003e Semiosic Translation\u003c\/i\u003e, a theory of translation and translating that encompasses the dynamic process of transforming signs across diverse semiotic systems, transcending conventional linguistic translation to embrace comprehensive cross-modal semiotic interactions. The present book should be read as a compilation of past errors and new theoretical paths that, considered as a whole, illuminate the interconnected, fluid nature of sign exchange, challenging traditional theoretical constraints such as Jakobson's trichotomy or rigid Peircean classifications. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eConceptual progression by chapter \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e1.
