Form symbolism can be extended by styleKennedy, Victor ; Kennedy, John M.Form symbols are shapes, such as circles, that detonate referents that are not necessarily forms, such as infinity, or softness, or mother. Form symbols can refer to a wide variety of referents. Some ... form symbols are merely arbitrary labels, but often there is significant correspodence between the symbol and the thing symbolized, with some property in common between the referent and the symbol. Despite the need for correspondence, via irony, a symbol can be redefined from one use to its very opposite, however. Further, its meaning can be extended by the style in which it is used. Do these changes in meaning show there is no significant role for correspondence? To support our argument that form symbols are not always arbitrary, we note that empirical methods can establish which novel symbolic functions of forms are general, with high consensus, which are tentative, with moderate levels of consensus, and which are arbitrary, with no significant level of consensus above chance. We note that, generally, changes in meaning wrought by both irony and style and temporary, and may even emphasize the permanent meaning of the symbol. Unlike signs, which are purely conventional, many symbols are apt, and what becomes conventional is the selective use of a particular feature of the symbol, which can be modified by styleSource: Philosophy of psychology, aesthetics (Str. 155-174)Type of material - article, component partPublish date - 1998Language - englishCOBISS.SI-ID - 7825416
