The second part concentrates on the way in which Umberto Eco used Fabbri’s essay, and in particular the ideas about the receptive aspects of mass communication. The third section looks at the sociosemiotics that developed especially in Italy and France in the 1990s and the early 2000s, highlighting the continuities between these studies and the perspectives opened by Paolo Fabbri.File in questo prodotto:
