“Barthes referred to semiology, the science of signs, in pursuing this task. He followed Ferdinand de Saussure鈥檚 claim that a sign is merely the outcome of an arbitrary relationship between a signifier (a word, picture, utterance) and a signified (a concept or mental image to which the signifier gives rise) 鈥� implying that the words we use have no fixed meanings in themselves. De Saussure called this ability of the sign to represent or convey meaning signification.”
