Abstract
RUIZ MORENO, Luisa. The Places and the Space. Tóp. Sem [online]. 2022, n.47, pp.31-55. Epub Jan 31, 2022. ISSN 2594-0619.
In Claude Zilberberg’s semiotic theory, the question of value is one of the conceptual nuclei with a great capacity to summon other notions with which this question is interwoven. This article aims to reflect on the significance of space, taking it as a value of perception. But as these considerations about space were suggested by the reading of the Eighth Elegy by Rainer María Rilke, another problem is linked to the previous one. Indeed, here the space is presented as the emergence of a question about the condition of human existence. The semantic domain of space —either as an absolute value or as a relative value— allows, in the poem, to postulate a possible form for the meaning of existence. Diagrammatic reasoning offers, for its part, different graphs to think about this bet.
Keywords : semiotics of space; pure space; world space.
