In order to demonstrate the scope and potential of the biosemiotics’ perspective for one of the most profound shifts in cultural analysis, the article providessome of the related theories from the latest essays by biosemiotician like Wendy Wheeler, Paul Cobley and, very briefly, Victoria Alexander, taking as a basis the pioneering work of Gregory Bateson.
