Denotation
and Connotation
The terms,
denotation and connotation, are used to convey and distinguish between two
different kinds of meanings or extantions of a word. A denotation is the strict, literal, definition of a word, devoid of
any emotion, attitude, or color. The connotation
of a word or term adds elements of emotion, attitude, or color. The meaning
or or use of denotation and connotation depends partly on the field
of study.
The meaning
of Denotation and Connotation
In
media-studies terminology, denotation is the first level of analysis : What the
audience can visually see on a page. Denotation often refers to something
literal, and avoids being a metaphor. Here it is usually coupled with
connotation, which is the second level of analysis, being what the denotation
represent.
A connotation is a subjective
cultural and/ or emotional coloration in addition to the explicit or denotative
meaning of any specific word or phrase in a language.
Bertrand
Russell, in 1905, published a seminal article on the topic of denotation,
entitled “On Denoting”.
Denotation
often links with symbolism, as the denotation of a particular media text often
represent something further ;a hidden meaning ( or an enigma code ) is often
hidden in a media text.
Examples
1. A red rose with a green stem. The connotation
is that is a symbol of passion and love this is what the rose represents.
2. A brown cross. The connotation is a symbol of
religion, according to the media connotation. To be more specific, this is a
symbol of Christiany.
Implication
Implication
or entailment is used in propositional logic and predicate logic to describe a
relationship between two sentences or sets of sentences, in which one sentences
is said to “lead to” or “imply” or “entail” the other sentence or set of
sentences, and the other is said to “follow from” or be “derived from” or be
“entailed by” the former.
