Semiotactics of hieratic markers: selected issues on sign structure and semiological processes

Abstract

Małgorzata Haładewicz-Grzelak’s aim in this article is to present the epistemological potential of the semiotactic model in analysis of the cultural opposition of sacred/profane. The research area is the socially constructed cultural space, defined as the sacrosphere. The semiotactic model is based on the insights of contemporary phonology (see e.g. Dziubalska-Kołaczyk, 2009) and examines the possibilities of combining signs and their postulated primes. In the paradigm defined in this way, I focus on defining some of the semiotic processes to which selected hieratic markers of the sacrosphere are subject (elements of St. Nicholas’ iconography, roadside shrines and the Moses Tablets). In particular I focus on the simplification of the internal structure of the sign I also discuss heuristically isolated components of a hieratic sign, such as directionality with variants, elevatio and locativus.
