Situated, Historical, Embodied Semiosis offers a new synthesis of Peircean biosemiotics, empirical research on situated activity (including talk, gesture, and inscriptions), and intra-active frameworks for becoming-with. Examining and integrating a wide range of theory and research, the authors combine close analysis of situated semiotic activity (artifacts and practices) across production, reception, and use to account for semiosis as a matter of flat, dialogic histories. The book proposes an expansive, transdisciplinary agenda where semiotic theory is grounded in the details of situated research and situated research is framed by basic theories of dialogic semiotics.
