Semiotics, as a meta-method capable of eliciting and establishing interactions between different disciplines and approaches, has its theoretical strength particularly in revealing and describing the dynamic, dialogic relations between cultural texts of past and present. A semiotic perspective will help us to gain a better understanding of what are happening in contemporary China, when an ancient civilization encounters the drastic and profound changes brought by the fast-developing media and cultural industry. The main topics of the Round Table focus on how texts are transmitted and interpreted in China’s media and cultural industry, namely, advertising, brand management, new media arts, fashion and luxury industry, entertainment, video-game, tourism, etc. We also attempt to approach the changing scene of Chinese culture, by discussing how and to what extent the texts of literary and philosophical classics are embraced, altered, or reinterpreted under such a context.

Contributions to our Round Table are welcome, as long as they help to understand the impacts of the booming media and cultural industries on Chinese national heritage, or the changing meaning and structure of the polymorphic cultural texts in today’s China. The Round Table will be conducted both in Chinese and English.
