Constructing a sign of dignity: A semiotic approach to understanding and intercultural communication.
Wang, Hong.

Constructing a sign of dignity: A semiotic approach to understanding and intercultural communication. - 188 p.

Major Professor: Richard L. Lanigan, Jr.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Southern Illinois University at Carbondale, 2001.

This is a study of cultural code and its effects on communication process in an intercultural context. The research question for this study is why advanced technology does not necessarily enhance intercultural communication and understanding. By investigating the subject matter of dignity (as presented in the Chinese produced TV drama series Dignity), I examine “I-I” pattern in the process of intercultural communication. I argue that too much I-I communication interferes and does damage to understanding and respect for people of other cultures. The methodology adopted in the research is semiotic phenomenology, as first proposed by Richard Lanigan (1988, 1992). Based upon Merleau-Ponty's concept of the living person as embodied expression and perception, semiotic phenomenology positions the person and his/her living experience as the starting point to understand cultural codes through apparent signs. Thus, it avoids the common dilemma of the relationship between culture and person in intercultural communication studies. My major findings are: (1) Historical context serves as one of the crucial factors turning interpersonal communicative acts into intercultural; (2) The cultural code guides the domain of actual interpretation for perceived intercultural communication; (3) The <italic> Dignity</italic> series is a case of I-I communication in the form of I-Other communication. Thus, it does not necessarily increase understanding for the depicted Other. I conclude that the semiosphere (the semiotic space for the interaction of different cultural codes) is the prerequisite condition to increase understanding in intercultural communication.
