Generalized Holographic Visions of Language in Vygotsky, Luria, Pribram, Eisenstein, and Vološinov

Holographic theories can be used as a metatheoretical vision of framing an original image or structure. The image can be distributed throughout various parts of that structure, with the complete image being encoded, so that the whole can be reproduced throughout the parts. This new field has direct implications for many areas of semiotics, pragmatics, and psycholinguistics (within the Russian understanding). Lev Semonovich Vygotsky, father of Russian psychology, wrote about holism in this way, without any knowledge of holography. Alexander Romanovich Luria, father of Russian neuropsychology, also established his theories of language based on a holistic approach. Karl Pribram (who collaborated with Luria in Moscow) wrote much about holography and language, and Sergei Eisenstein (a close friend of Vygotsky and Luria) was a filmmaker and semiotician, writing in a similar vain, as did Valentin Vološinov. In particular, this paper discusses holographic views of the world, with an introduction to the language theories of A. R. Luria, and the role of image and inner speech within what can be called holographic psycholinguistics
