Abstract
Welby's significs found official recognition in the spheres of semiotic and philosophical research as the nineteenth century gradually turned into the twentieth. Such recognition was expressed through a series of editorial initiatives including the publication of dictionary and encyclopedia entries. Moreover, it was extended to the Signific Movement in the Netherlands, which was originally influenced by Welby's research and which developed internationally and independently of Welby across the first half of the twentieth century.
