Greimas in the Realm of Huckleberry Finn: or Why Do Men Have Bodies and Women and Children Don't Speaker: Professor Paul Perron (Department of French, University of Toronto, Canada) 演讲人：裴隆教授（加拿大多伦多大学法语文化研究学系） 主持人：蔡秀枝教授（台湾大学外文系副教授） 时间：2007年4月27日周五下午3:00-5:00 地点：台大文学院二楼院会议室 Abstract: Greimassian or “Paris School” semiotics begins by positing the existence of a semantic universe that is coextensive with the concept of culture, and which is defined as the set of its value systems. Describing such a semantic universe as a whole, however, would be an exercise in exhaustivity, and so a micro-semantic universe is proposed, comparable in scope to that of a single literary discourse universe. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain will therefore serve the purposes of this study, which aims to explain certain facets of the way in which this semiotic methodology has heuristic utility in the analysis of canonical North American literary texts.
