Physiophilia and Semioethics: A Revised Perspective on Semiotic Response-Ability

  • Nicola Zengiaro

摘要

This article examines the semioethical framework proposed by Susan Petrilli and Augusto Ponzio in “Biosemiotics, Global Semiotics and Semioethics”, focusing on its integration of physiosemiosis—sign processes occurring in the inorganic realm—into the broader semiotic and ethical discourse. While their work advances a critical perspective on anthropocentrism and the commodification of communication, it leaves unresolved the ethical tensions between animal ethics and ecological ethics. By incorporating the concept of response-ability and extending semioethics toward physiophilia, this paper argues for a more inclusive ethical paradigm that encompasses hyperobjects, ecosystems, and non-traditional semiotic entities.
