1st ROASS CONFERENCE - media coverage
SEMIOTICS BEYOND LIMITS
Ziarul de Bacău
- "Asociaţia Româna de Studii Semiotice, împreună cu Facultatea de Litere a Universităţii din Bacău, organizează in perioada 26-28 Octombrie, în staţiunea Slănic-Moldova, la hotel "Venus", Conferinţa Internaţională a Asociaţiei Române de Studii Semiotice. La această amplă manifestare, care are ca tema "Semiotica dincolo de limite", sunt aşteptaţi peste 100 de participanţi din Finlanda, Spania, Italia, Franta, Taiwan, Polonia, SUA, Anglia, Germania şi Republica Moldova. [...]" (26.10.2006 - R.D. Busnea & C. Gherasim - http://www.ziaruldebacau.ro/index.php?articol=16125)
- Academicianul Solomon Marcus, personalitate marcantă în peisajul cultural românesc: "Prin abordările şi dezbaterile cu trimitere la tema conferinţei s-a reuşit, cred eu, depăşirea barierelor disciplinare considerate de mulţi specialişti a avea efecte nocive. Importanţa crescândă a semioticii va necesita instituţionalizarea acesteia, deoarece, la această dată, încă nu avem în lume o catedra de semiotica. Un prim pas a fost făcut in Romania, prin crearea Asociaţiei Române de Studii Semiotice, care are sediul la Bacău si căreia îi doresc succese depline. Importanţa rămâne comunicarea, intrarea în dialog cu ceilalţi membri ai comunităţii, împărţirea unor standarde comune atât de cercetare, cât şi de validare a rezulatelor cercetării. Semiotica este o cale a rezolvării acestora" [...]. (30.10.2006 - Dan Busnea - http://www.ziaruldebacau.ro/index.php?articol=16210)
