similarity. Authors compile from pre-existing texts known as intertextuality‚ the use of prior texts in current texts. Julia Kristeva‚ a psychoanalyst is the first to introduce the term ‘intertextuality’. She redefines the theories established by Ferdinand de Saussure and Mikhail Bakhtin and suggests a text is not simply interpreted by its words‚ instead it is a study based on the works it has adapted (lecture). Kristeva mentions that although a writer usually talks to a specific audience‚ a text exists

Competence-Performance Distinction A further difference between generativism and Bloomfieldian and post-Bloomfieldian structuralism - though in this respect generativism is closer to Saussurean structuralism - relates to the distinction that Chomsky draws between competence and performance. A speaker’s linguistic competence is that part of his knowledge - his knowledge of the language-system as such - by virtue of which he is able to produce the indefinitely large set of sentences that constitutes

for Peter to listen. I would like to analyze the statement Ben makes‚ more specifically focus on the sentence‚ “Remember with great power‚ comes great responsibility.” I will use two communication theories to analyze the sentence‚ Dramatism and Semiotics.

illustrate this point‚ we can think of a chain of signs where interpretants are also signs that determine other interpretants‚ and where there is a first and a last sign. The last sign has no interpretant as it terminates the semiotic process. If it did not terminate the semiotic process it would not be the final interpretant as it would be a sign that would generate another interpretant and the process would continue. But establishing the final sign is problematic: in order to be a sign in the Peircean

Language innovation It is well known that time changes everything in this universe; thus; it would be strange if language alone does not alter. As the famous linguist Ferdinand de Saussure noted ‘’time changes all things: there is no reason why language should escape thi suniversal law’’ in (Aitchison (ed)‚ 1981: 16). All living languages are in a constant state of change in the sense that‚ new words and expressions come into existence‚ old words are dropped and new pronunciation takes place

LITERATURE REVIEW Semiotics is an important concept when it comes to studying media and communications because we use signs whether it is seen‚ heard or felt in order to communicate. Umberto Eco (1975‚ p.7) defines semiotics in a broad sense that it is ‘concerned with everything that can be taken as a sign’ however it is unclear specifically what a ‘sign’ is‚ Daniel Chandler (2007‚ p2) elaborates further on Eco’s definition by stating that semiotics is ‘anything that stands for something else’.

Postmodernism is about the arbitrary connection between reality and the subject matter. The point of postmodernism is to create a connection and knowledge through culture not through the past meanings that have developed over time. Barthes‚ Derrida‚ and Saussure each deeply study the themes of the postmodern world‚ and every man’s conclusion comes down to the same thread of arbitrariness. It is not about a one single meaning in the postmodern world‚ it is about the context. Therefore‚ fear of the unknown
