About
Cygne noir is a French-language, open-access journal of semiotics. Founded in Montreal in 2012, the journal actively contributes to the international semiotic research community, emphasizing the importance of developing and publishing original and meaningful studies in French. Cygne noir was founded in a spirit of openness with regard to possible objects of inquiry and theoretic frameworks. Studies from all related disciplines and domains of research may find their way in the journal. The papers – or explorations – published in the journal all contribute in a critical manner to a reflection on signs and meaning, meaning-making, interpretation and knowledge formation.
