“王八”、“Wombat”，你是誰？Saussure符號學的啟示與限制
"Wombat", Who Are You? Enlightenment from Saussure's Semiology and His Limitation
摘要
本文主要探討Saussure是如何從符號結構中尋找「意義」(上標 (1))的？同時指出Saussure符號觀之侷限，探討在使用語言或符號溝通過程中之意義，是否僅從符號內部靜態結構就能夠掌握意義。耙梳Saussure的符號學思想後發現，Saussure認為符號的「意義」來自於符號價值的決定，而符號價值又從符號結構中複雜的差異性比較、負面定義、毗鄰軸與系譜軸交會以及部分與整體之相互作用而來。Sanssure符號觀之侷限，在於他忽略了人、符號和符號指涉客體間三元互動關係所形成的詮釋符號，也忽略了「語境」也是意義之重要來源。
並列摘要
The present paper attempts to examine how Saussure finds meaning in the linguistic structure and at the same time to point out to the limitation of the Saussrean conception of language, which, in my opinion, is restricted to a relatively static view of meaning. Saussure argues that meaning rests on the value of signs, which in turn derives from the interactions among difference, negation, syntagm and association. Saussure fails to pay adequate attention to the interactions among object, person and sign and therefore the influence of context.
