The main focus of this volume is on urbanity as a discursive way of
human life in the city. Discourse is specified here in terms of
semiotic codes and processes that link city dwellers as
communicating selves into interpersonal and intersubjective
collectivities when they create and interpret similar meanings
embodied in material bearers. Accordingly, the unfolding of the
semiotic web is understood, firstly, as detecting and evaluating
the growth and manifestation of the sphere of meaning-bearers or a
sequence of meaning-bearing events, and secondly, as identifying
and explaining the constituents and aspects of discourse in the
light of signs and/or sign-processes that aggregate individual
participants of communication into discursive linkages on a lower
level and discursive communities – on a higher level of social
grouping. Some contributions deal with the discursive properties of
human individuals in urban environments, and some others are
devoted either to the meta-discourses on the city or discourses in
the city.
