Zusammenfassung: | Criticises the essay by John Needham in 'Landfall', no.148, P.477-456, on the new semiology. Accuses the writer of misunderstanding the nature of sign in Saussurean linguistics, leading him to confuse the signifie with the referent. Suggests that Needham proposes a theory of meaning giving things priority over words and regards poems themselves as objects. Needham replies, disagreeing with his arguments..
