«The Fate of Meaning: Charles Peirce, Structuralism, and Literature» is the academic essay by John K. Sheriff (Princeton University Press, hardcover).
Drawing on the philosophy of Charles S. Peirce, John K. Sheriff analyzes why Saussure's binary model prevents addressing meaning and presents Peirce's triadic semiotics as an alternative. The book surveys structuralist and poststructuralist criticism and sets out the keys of Peircean semiotics for literary interpretation.
Work published in 1989 in the Princeton Legacy Library series. English edition of 168 pages, with bibliographic references and index.
For university students and readers interested in semiotics, literary theory, and structuralist criticism.
