Re: [xmca] Vygotsky, Luria and Eisenshtein (links)

Keep at it Achilles, This is a good topic. Have you found the Engestrom
piece
on archives of newsletter of lchc on the lchc web page? Use google on home
page of lchc to find it.

There is a very important book by V.V. Ivanov, "The history of semiotics in
the
USSR" which has a lot on Eisenshtein and Vygotsky that I have been trying to
get translated for 30 years. I will cc Pentti to see if he can make progress
on this
through JREEP.

I fear I must now focus on local educational matters for a while but am sure
this
line of thought is most worthwhile. Also, Lotman on semiotics of cinema must
be valuable.
