Abstract The concept of icon has its foundation in the semiotics of C.S. Peirce. According to Peirce, a sign represents a material or mental object and creates a so-called interpretant in an interpreter’s mind. In contrast to a symbol, which needs to be learned, and an index, which is related to its object spatially or causally, an ...

Sign languages are known to display the same general grammatical properties as spoken languages (‘Universal Grammar’), but also to make greater use of iconic mechanisms. In Schlenker et al.’s ‘Iconic Variables’ (Linguist Philos 36(2):91–149, 2013), it was argued that loci (= positions in signing space corresponding to discourse referents) can have an ...

Abstract Investigations of the processing of brief visual displays, and the explanation of such processing in terms of iconic memory, are reviewed. It is concluded that the concept of a pre-categorical sensory memory for visual material remains tenable.

During the development of computing and information processing over the last twenty years, the number of functions offered to the user has exponentially increased. This increase has resulted in two main problems: one at the physical level, the other at the cognitive level.

Translation of iconicity: iconicity of translation
Abstract This chapter examines the relationship between translation and iconicity by addressing two key questions: (i) to what extent is it possible to translate iconic language and (ii) to what extent are translations themselves iconic (i.e. similar to their source texts) by virtue of the fact that they are translations?Imogen Cohen, Eric Metz

Abstract Students of animal communication use the word “ritualization” for the evolutionary process by which signals, such as a dog’s retracted lip, are built in as stereotyped hereditary traits. Ritualization takes a long time and it leads to a signal that requires little learning. A much faster way for a signal to become established is
