英文简介

Biosemiotics is dedicated to building a bridge between biology, philosophy, linguistics, and the communication sciences. Biosemiotic research is concerned with the study of signs and meaning in living organisms and systems. Its main challenge is to naturalize biological meaning and information by building on the belief that signs are fundamental, constitutive components of the living world.Biosemiotics has triggered rethinking of fundamental assumptions in both biology and semiotics. In this view, biology should recognize the semiotic nature of life and reshape its theories and methodology accordingly while semiotics and the humanities should acknowledge the existence of signs beyond the human realm. Biosemiotics is at the cutting edge of research on the fundamentals of life. By challenging traditional assumptions on the nature of life and suggesting alternative perspectives, it opens up exciting new research paths.

中文简介

生物符号学致力于在生物学、哲学、语言学和传播学之间架起一座桥梁。生物符号学研究是研究生命有机体和系统中的符号和意义。它的主要挑战是通过建立在符号是生活世界的基本组成部分的信念之上，使生物学意义和信息自然化。生物符号学引发了对生物学和符号学基本假设的反思。因此，生物学应该认识到生命的符号学本质，并相应地改造生命的理论和方法论，符号学和人文学科应该认识到符号在人类领域之外的存在。生物符号学是研究生命基本原理的前沿学科。通过挑战对生命本质的传统假设，并提出不同的观点，它开辟了令人兴奋的新研究道路。
