Culture and Explosion is the English translation of the final book written by legendary semiotician Juri Lotman. The volume demonstrates, with copious examples, how culture influences the way that humans experience ""reality"". Lotman's renowned erudition is showcased in a host of well-chosen illustrations from history,
literature, art and right across the humanities. Now appearing in
English for the very first time, the volume is made accessible to
students and researchers in semiotics, cultural/literary studies and
Russian studies worldwide, as well as anyone with an interest in
understanding contemporary intellectual life.
