Origin of semiotics

The semiotics is a science that studies the value of words in context of discourse and his significance on use that we have given to these words, for examples, a word on movie has value given if we consider context of movie and former cutes, but also context and environment of movie, son we can understand genre of movie, comedy, dramatic, of other, we can understand an environment of a movie by cloths or armies; this is semiotics, because by a sign we can connect this movie to a time, by a monument we can connect this context to a country. These are signs alone, summary indications the we can and we must connect to a time and moment. This exercise is natural and normal, or rather daily, then nothing is now. But we also can ask to us, around when this exercise has began? I think that this question certainly can busy for some second, neither minutes, I think it because I am optimistic, some second alone; but we can consider that this exercise is born, at least by written form, by Aristotle and precisely by Analytical, where Aristotle studied value and context of words, then their value on discourse, synonymous, contrary, and value regard meaning. A citation I think that can could aid us: “the protasis is enunciable affirmative or negative around a thing on confront to other. This enunciable is or universal or particular or indefinite. I say that is universal be inherent to everything or nothing, partial be inherent to something or not be inherent to something, at last indefinite this is without be inherent universally or particularly.    We can think that matter of semiotics is a think very near to us; because it is present in de Saussure because he has given some ideas necessary to development of semiotics think, and it is raise for subsequent ones thinks and analyses. We must consider that the origin of semiotics is Categories of Aristoteles; this is a book that is together with Organon, and First analytics is a first development of matter of semiotics. We can consider some step of this books: “Every thing that we can say to them, independently from other, it isn’t without statement, but with connection we can find statement. In fact it seems that is true or false, but things that we say without connection, nothing is true or false for example: man, white, he runs, he wins”. This example certainly doesn’t explains the development of semiotics, but we must think that the semiotics is matter about means of words and their means, and this primordial examination is origin of subsequent examination. I can say it because in the Categories that study of words and their means is very much present, other example: “Substance is said to owner and primary…On contrary they are said second substance species where are substances primary. A man is to gender in kind human and gender of this kind is animal, then they are said as second substances because they are secondary, man or animal”; this examination of words is motive to think and cataloguing of words and their gender, then it is semiotics.
