Lexia

Lexia is the international journal of semiotics published by the Department of Philosophy and Education Sciences (DFE) at the University of Turin. It features studies and research that embrace and cultivate the insights of semiotics from Saussure, Peirce, Lotman, and Eco.

Initially active from 1993 to 1998 as the journal of the Turin Center of Semiotics, it was relaunched in 2009 in an entirely new form as an international peer-reviewed journal by the Interdisciplinary Center for Communication Research (CIRCe), directed by Prof. Ugo Volli.

Issues of LEXIA

LEXIA also includes a series of essays that present empirical research, case studies, and theoretical explorations on a wide range of topics with the goal of describing and understanding the vast cultural domain, comprising texts and discourses, interpretive activities and codified practices, languages and genres, communicative phenomena and effects of meaning, expressive techniques and content inventories, messages, rewritings, and distortions, which together form the world we live in.
