Abstract
Victoria Welby and the signific movement are discussed by Susan Petrilli, in the book Signifying and Understanding, chronologically and thematically, in connection with contemporary semiotics as well as with the intellectual and scientific landscape of Welby's own time. The book also contains priceless material from the archives that will permit anyone interested to continue this line of research. A selection of Welby's vast correspondence with intellectuals, researchers, and philosophers important to linguistics, semiotics, psychology, and anthropology, to mention a few of her interests mirrored in the exchange of letters, is included in the book. Appended to the book are also selections from Welby's writings. Some of the material is here published for the first time.
