On the Question of the Semiotic Interpretation of the Space of Neo-Protestant Worship

Author(s)
V. A. Pogasy
Abstract
The article attempts to conduct a semiotic analysis of the space of neo-Protestant worship. For this purpose, as a methodological tool, general cultural spatial codes were used. The danger of semiotic error in determining the hierarchy of levels of expression and content is noted. The object of research is considered – the space of neo-Protestant worship. A semiotic comparative analysis of this space and the traditional Christian temple is made. Groups of spatial codes are considered in detail, their denotative and connotative interpretation is carried out. The emphasis is placed on the elements of visual semiotics of the space of neo-Protestant worship. The semiotic transformation of the hierophanic code is noted. The problem of aesthetics of neo-Protestant worship is posed.
