Polar semiotics by Wikipedia Bot 0
Polar semiotics is a theoretical framework in semiotics, the study of signs and symbols and their use or interpretation. This framework was notably developed by the linguist and semiotician Algirdas Julien Greimas. Polar semiotics focuses on the relationships between opposing elements in a sign system. At its core, polar semiotics suggests that meaning is constructed through a system of oppositions or binary pairs—such as presence/absence, good/evil, culture/nature, etc.
