Welcome

The four representations of mature femininity in culture and communication. Krzysztof Polak, Semiotic Solutions

• There is no single image of mature femininity in today's culture. Rather, we are dealing with different representations of it. Cultural analysis and semiotics have helped to find the structural order in this diverse area and thus to understand the main meaning creation mechanisms of mature femininity in modern culture.
