By using the noun glossematics in its adjectival function, this paper aims at drawing a distinction between Hjelmslev's semiotics and structural semiotics in a broader sense. Glossematic semiotics brings together “facts” and “values”, nature and culture, physis and logos. The sublogic of sign upon which it is based, i.e. the dimension of reticularity, of entirety, of participation, appears to be the missing link bridging the gap between present perfect and future perfect of semiotics, by focusing the attention to the iletic components of sense and by subverting the auto-referential logos that pushes towards the search for an anonymous structure.

Abstract
By using the noun glossematics in its adjectival function, this paper aims at drawing a distinction between Hjelmslev's semiotics and structural semiotics in a broader sense. Glossematic semiotics brings together “facts” and “values”, nature and culture, physis and logos. The sublogic of sign upon which it is based, i.e. the dimension of reticularity, of entirety, of participation, appears to be the missing link bridging the gap between present perfect and future perfect of semiotics, by focusing the attention to the iletic components of sense and by subverting the auto-referential logos that pushes towards the search for an anonymous structure.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
