Title: Conversations with Lotman
First published: 2003
Description: "Conversations with Lotman is a critical analysis of the central contributions of Russian cultural historian and theoretician Jurij Lotman to the study of semiotics, including his writings on the 'semiotics of culture' and the 'semiotics of artistic space', and his efforts to model the production of cultural knowledge and how it is shared in any functioning semiotic space.

Edna Andrews builds a narrative around Lotman's work by presenting the major principles of his cultural semiotic theory, including his doctrine of signs, his definition of the 'semiosphere', and his modelling of communication as a means to create new knowledge and to share old knowledge."--BOOK JACKET.
