Description

"The essay by Giampaolo Proni, Professor of Semiotics inthe Department for Life Quality Studies at the University of Bologna,identifies semiotic tools and pathways that explain Donald Trump’shair, a subject that has long been a source of curiosity and media interest, but that with the election of Trump as President of the United States of America has attracted renewed interest. Specifically, Talking to Oneself. A Semiotic Analysis of Donald Trump’s Hair Style invites the reader to consider Trump’s hairstyle first and foremost as an idiolect, an individual language, or rather a linguistic system of a community that is unique to every single speaker, and that on a metasemiotic level can be considered a form of self-presentation autism."
