  • The Soviet and the Post-Soviet in Dialogue with (Post-/De-)Colonial Studies: An Introducion

    Open Access•Pietro Restaneo, Laura Gherlone•ARTICLE•Bakhtiniana Revista de Estudos do…•2026

  • Tecnologia (colonial): A contribuição da culturologia lotmaniana para os estudos da colonialidade digital

    Open Access•Laura Gherlone•ARTICLE•Bakhtiniana Revista de Estudos do…•2026

    Este artigo examina o milieu intelectual que desafiou Yu. Lotman a pensar sobre o progresso tecnológico em termos culturológicos. A discussão se concentra na teoria crítica da tecnologia do estudioso de Tartu, que surgiu do contato com dois projetos intelectuais específicos do período soviético, promovidos pela cibernética e pelo movimento cosmista, respectivamente: a ordenação do mundo conduzida pelas máquinas e a planetarização da tecnologia. E…

  • (Colonial) Technology: The Contribution of Lotmanian Culturology to Digital Coloniality Studies

    Open Access•Laura Gherlone•ARTICLE•Bakhtiniana Revista de Estudos do…•2026

    This article examines the intellectual milieu that challenged Yu. Lotman to think about technological progress in culturological terms. The discussion focuses on the Tartu scholar’s critical theory of technology, which emerged from contact with two specific intellectual projects of the Soviet period, advanced by cybernetics and the Cosmist movement, respectively: the machine-driven ordering of the world and the planetarisation of technology. The …

  • On binary opposition and binarism: A long-distance dialogue between decolonial critique and the Lotmanian semiotics

    Open Access•Laura Gherlone•ARTICLE•Sign Systems Studies•2023•Cited by: 1•References: 17

    While addressing the decolonial critique of Eurocentric modernity and the call for alternative cosmo-visions, this article retraces Juri Lotman’s culturological exploration towards the concept of ternarity [тернарность]: the scrutiny of the so-called binarism is what connects – without overlapping – the two perspectives. This long-distance dialogue will be built starting with the key notion of binary opposition, which will be analysed as a decolo…

  • The center-periphery dynamics in Juri Lotman’s later works: A way forward for new epistemological dialogues

    Open Access•Laura Gherlone•ARTICLE•RUS (São Paulo)•2022

    In this contribution I will explore an aspect of Lotman’s culturological method, which consists of his unwavering focus on the conflictual-energetic dimension of the semiotic life of human beings: a dimension he identified, since the 1970s works, in a kind of “original” tension, that is, the center-periphery dynamics. Taking up this idea extensively in his latest writings and emphasizing the concept of “conflict” (конфликт) with all its synonymic…

    El presente artículo pretende indagar cómo, durante la explosión de la pandemia del COVID-19, la esfera digital ha proporcionado un espacio afectivo para la manifestación del dolor colectivo frente a la muerte de multitudes de personas. Se hará particular referencia a una serie de imágenes viralizadas por las redes sociales durante los meses de febrero-abril de 2020 e interpretadas a la luz de la teoría de las Pathosformeln de Aby Warburg –imágen…

  • In the footsteps of the semiotic school of Moscow-Tartu / Tartu-Moscow: Evaluations and perspectives

  • Lótman continua a surpreender: Revoluções e emoções coletivas

    Open Access•Laura Gherlone•ARTICLE•Bakhtiniana Revista de Estudos do…•2019

    Entre 1988 e 1993, Iúri M. Lótman formulou algumas proposições sobre “a voz da massa anônima”: uma voz coletiva que, em certas situacões ligadas a crises de caráter cultural, é portadora de paixões violentas que podem produzir interferências profundas no curso da história. Em seus últimos trabalhos, o semioticista russo postulou, diante disso, a noção de uma semiótica das emoções como objeto de estudo para entender a dinâmica cultural, em especia…

  • A escrita feminina entre a fronteira e o não lugar: Discursos femininos em ascensão na Literatura Italiana de Migração

    Open Access•Laura Gherlone•ARTICLE•Bakhtiniana Revista de Estudos do…•2019•Cited by: 1•References: 3

    Durante o processo da Perestroika soviética, Iuri Lotman escreveu reflexões sobre o conceito de fronteira. Como testemunhou migrações em massa, expulsões forçadas e reconfigurações etnogeográficas sem precedentes, sabia o quanto uma fronteira pode ser carregada de significado cultural que transcende sua dimensão espacial. Ter esse tipo de consciência era ainda mais urgente tendo em vista ser esse um período histórico de transição, reconstrução e …

  • Vygotsky, Bakhtin, Lotman: Towards a theory of communication in the horizon ofthe other

    Open Access•Laura Gherlone•ARTICLE•Semiotica•2016•Cited by: 2•References: 6

    Shortly before his death, Yuri Lotman (1922-1993), by now blind, dictated some considerations on the concept of 'alien,' 'stranger' (chuzhdoe): a concept that de facto weaves all of his thirty-year reflections on the relationship between language, meaning, and culture and that, until the end, appears as the mark of a speculative orientation focused on the ethics of otherness. A profound influence on Lotman's thinking in this direction was exercis…

  • Rumo a Uma Semiótica Histórica o Último Lótman: Sentido, História, Cultura

    Open Access•Laura Gherlone•ARTICLE•Estudos de religião•2015•References: 2

    Jurij M. Lotman (1922-1993) was aware that the period between 1990-1993 was seeing the maturation of an "other" thought in respect to the previous intellectual production. In fact, although there were clear lines of thematic continuity, in the early 90s (due also to his precarious state of health) his way of expressing and speculating -made more and more use of intuition, analogies, suggestions, and memories: reflective explosions. He was in part…

  • Lotman’s epistemology: Analogy, culture, world

    Open Access•Laura Gherlone•ARTICLE•Sign Systems Studies•2013•Cited by: 1•References: 1

    According to Jeanne Parain-Vial and others, humans are characterized by their need for analogy, together with the need for logic and intelligibility, and this need is expressed by a continuous research of models in the scientific field that can, in some aspects, bring to light some properties of reality, namely be analogous of them. The knowability of things is founded on analogy; thus, they are not exhausted by a single model of knowledge but ra…

  • Semiotics and interdisciplinarity: Lotman’s legacy

    Open Access•Laura Gherlone•ARTICLE•Sign Systems Studies•2013•Cited by: 1•References: 2

    In his last work, Unpredictable Mechanisms of Culture, Lotman underscores that natural sciences and humanities have to search for the unity of the incompatible through a profound meta-linguistic dialogue. Th is can happen only considering the reality in its antinomies, or as informed by a plurality of languages reciprocally aimed to express the real movement of objects – a heterogeneous and contradictory movement: hence, Lotman’s suggestion (whic…
