Copenhagen–Tartu school

Copenhagen–Tartu school of biosemiotics is a loose network of scholars working within the discipline of biosemiotics at the University of Tartu and the University of Copenhagen.

History

The school has been instrumental in developing biosemiotics as a new perspective on the study of life, in the biological and environmental sciences. Notable semioticians working in the Copenhagen–Tartu school are: Kalevi Kull, Jesper Hoffmeyer, Claus Emmeche, Frederik Stjernfelt, Søren Brier, Peeter Torop, Timo Maran, Mihhail Lotman.[1][2][3]

Occasionally also the name 'Tartu–Bloomington–Copenhagen school' has been used,[4] as having succeeded the earlier Tartu–Moscow school.[5]

The biosemiotic co-work between the Tartu and Copenhagen groups was established in early 1990s.[6] In 2001, Tartu and Copenhagen scholars inaugurated the annual international conferences for biosemiotic research known as the Gatherings in Biosemiotics, later organised by the International Society for Biosemiotic Studies.[7]

The School values the classical works of Jakob von Uexküll and Juri Lotman as well as those of Charles Sanders Peirce.
