On biosemiotics and its possible relevance to linguistics

Donald Favareau, Kalevi Kull

pp. 13-28

Biosemiotics is the study of meaning-making in biological systems. It argues that all organisms are biologically semiosic systems. This provides for linguistics a firm basis to ground the problem of the origin of meaning and to build upon the findings of this field.
