Intro -- Table of Contents -- List of Tables and Illustrations -- Foreword -- Part One - Language on the Internet, an Ancient Know-How Digitised -- Chapter One -- 1.1 The Scriptural Fact, an Externality of the Oral Code -- 1.2 The Jargon of the Surfer -- 1.3 A Structural Approach to this New Language -- 1.4 Conclusion to the Analysis of these Corpora -- 1.5 The Same Code and the Same Technique for Different Technologies and Various Issues -- 1.6 Presentation of this New Code from Examples of the Prescriptive and Autopoietic Type -- Chapter Two -- 2.1. Codification and Standardisation of Terms or Expressions for Electronic Pictograms -- 2.2. Codification and Standardisation of Neologisms in Progress on the Internet -- 2.3 Between Reality and Utopia -- Conclusion -- Part Two - Dictionary -- Chapter One -- Chapter Two -- Pictograms with Two Characters -- Pictograms with Three Characters -- Pictograms with Four or More Characters -- Chapter Three -- Bibliography.
Sammanfattning: This book explores the new language of the Internet which offers a middle ground between expressiveness and speed. It also reports on innovative lexicographic practices. Internet users want their written communication to be as fast as that present in oral exchanges; they also want to convey feelings and emotions, and for that they use pictographic symbols. This new system proceeds from the same construction that presided over the establishment of hieroglyphs and ideograms, namely the initialization of semantic fields from basic graphs. Is this not a re-appropriation of ancient know-how? In the long run, will this virtual society, composed of a sum of individuals aggregated around playful projects, not be the necessary counter-power to more and more bureaucratic societal systems? Would this system move beyond the virtual to penetrate the real?.
