The first volume of Heinrichs’ five-volume philosophy of language begins where language begins: with the sign. Before anything can mean something, there must be a sign — a sensory mark that stands for something else. But what exactly is a sign? How do different types of signs differ? And how does sign form relate to what it designates?

Volume 1 (Sigmatics) develops a complete reflection-logical theory of the sign dimension — going beyond classical semiotics (Peirce, Saussure) by showing the four-stage structure inherent in sign-use itself.

Volume Dimension Theme
1 Sigmatics The sign form: sound, script, symbol
2 Semantics Meaning: words, fields, metaphor
3 Pragmatics Speech acts: action, dialogue
4 Syntax Deep structure: the sentence formula
5 Stylistics Beyond the sentence: style and rhetoric

The foundation on which all subsequent volumes build.
