Is <strong>Turner</strong>’s Approach<br />

Semiotic?<br />

• <strong>Turner</strong>’s symbolic anthropology is not<br />

necessarily <strong>com</strong>patible with Peirce’s semiotic<br />

approach<br />

• It is interesting to consider this because it seems<br />

to be so similar. After all, he deals with symbols<br />

and culture.<br />

• The main difference is a Cartesian approach to<br />

the subject (anthropologist) versus a Peircian<br />

approach that involves Interpretive Networks<br />

and Operationalized Representations.
