L' exotisme, Instrument analytique des activités expressives des marques : Le cas de l’horlogerie
Abstract
This article reflects on the notion of exoticism and considers its possible application to the advertising of watch brands. Based on the contributions of Victor Segalen and Juri Lotman to the understanding of encounters between different cultures, new definitions and a semiotic square of the modes of production of exoticism are introduced. The aim is to provide some useful tools to manage a phenomenon that, although widespread in advertising, is little studied.
