Symbolic content - I don't feel well

Japanese: 記号内容 - きごうないよう
Symbolic content - I don't feel well

…Language is a prism through which humans discontinuously transform continuous reality, and is nothing other than an arbitrary (= historical/social) Gestalt. Therefore, a linguistic sign is not a sign of an externally-located object, but is itself both a “sign expression” (signifiant) and a “signified” (signifié), and these two exist only on the premise of the existence of the other, and are produced together with the segmentation of the “sign” (signe). (Note that although these are not necessarily appropriate translations, due to the historical circumstances of the introduction of translations in Japan, the translations “nocitante” and “signifié” are sometimes used.) This is a fundamental criticism of the logocentrism that has dominated Western metaphysics since Greece, and this way of thinking can be said to have become the basis of cultural semiotics, which we will look at next.…
