Southern Semiotic Review publishes research that analyzes signs and symbols across various domains, including religious discourse, urban heritage, literature, and traditional rituals. The journal explores how semiotic frameworks, particularly those of Peirce and Barthes, are applied to understand cultural practices, communication strategies, and the construction of meaning in diverse contexts. Articles examine the role of signs in areas such as language acquisition, political communication, and the representation of social issues.
