摘　　要：符号学是一门充满了西方色彩的现代显学,它历来被分为以索绪尔为代表的语符中心符号学和以皮尔斯为代表的实效主义符号学两条路径。时至今日,符号学有没有第三条路径?此问题是世界当代符号学关注的热点,更是中国符号学亟待回答的问题,因为它关系到中国传统符号学资源的属性、符号学研究的意指模式以及中国符号学在世界符号学的地位问题。我们认为,第三条路径是可以探究的,这就是基于中国学者“语象合治”符号观的语象合治之路:本文的思想观点有七:1)提出“大符号”观来规约符号,对符号的界定标准做进一步完善;2)语象合治是符号学的普遍现象,体现的是一种中性符号观,其主旨是对二元对立及语象分治关系的解除;3)语象合治可分为移心型合治和执中型合治,前者跨界有痕,后者整合浑成;4)语象合治观无论在中国传统符号学思想中还是在当代西方符号学思想中均具有理论根底和基础;5)语象分治是西方符号学所遵循的主要路径,但其对符号认识的偏狭和对符号边界的固守已经形成符号学发展新的瓶颈;6)中国符号学研究者的理论探索和创新实践是非常有益的,充分说明了“语象合治”思想的正确性;7)中国是一个长于符号思维的国度,其独特、丰富的符号学学术资源是中国符号学发展的重要依归,语象合治思想的提出将会进一步提升中国符号学在世界学术界的地位。Semitics is a modern discipline best known for its Western attributes.It has long been identified as having two approaches-sign-focused semiotics represented by Ferdinand de Saussure and pragmatist semiotics represented by Charles Sanders Peirce.Has there been,up to this day,a third approach to semiotics?This remains a focus of concern for contemporary semiotics studies around the world and moreover,a burning question to be answered for Chinese semiotic studies as it concerns the nature of traditional Chinese semiotic resources,the mode of signification in semiotics studies and the place the Chinese semiotics takes in the world’s semiotics studies.We propose in this essay that there exists a third approach to semiotics studies-integration of langue and image,which is different from the well-established approaches of Western semiotics.Our major claims are as follows.1) A macro view is required to define signs with streamlined standards of definition.2) Integration of langue and image is a common phenomenon in semiotics,which represents a neutral view towards signs and primarily a breakaway from binary opposition and separation of langue and image.3) Integration of langue and image can fall into two types-focus-shifting integration and impartial integration,the former being distinctly transboundary,and the latter,harmoniously whole.4) Integration of langue and image finds its theoretical foundation in both traditional Chinese semiotics and modern Western semiotics.5) Separation of langue and image is an approach primarily followed by Western semiotics,which nevertheless has become a new bottleneck for the development of semiotics due to its biased understanding of signs and steadfast cling to semiotic boundaries.6) The theoretical exploration and innovative practice by Chinese semiotics scholars are very helpful in that they have justified the approach of integration of langue and image.7) China is a nation excelling at semiotic thinking,whose rich and unique semiotic resources fundamentally underlie the developm
