28Intentionality and semiotics: a story of mutual fecundationUniversity of Scranton Press. 2007.How can philosophy or science claim to discover objective truth when their arguments originate from subjective beings? In _Intentionality and Semiotics_, John Deely offers a controversial solution to the problem of subjectivity in inquiry.

27Defining the Semiotic AnimalAmerican Catholic Philosophical Quarterly 79 (3): 461-481. 2005.As modernity began with a redefinition of the human being, so does postmodernity. But whereas the modern definition of the human being as res cogitans cut human animals off from both their very animality and the world of nature out of which they evolved and upon which they depend throughout life, the postmodern definition as semeiotic animal both overcomes the separation from nature and restores the animality essential to human being in this life.
