There is no doubt that medical semiotics are having a revival at the moment. Different aspects of yesterday's and today's interest in semiotics and in the historical interpretation of signs of disease in the context of theory and history of medicine can be illuminated: their deciphering as the history of the sign in medicine by historic science, their overestimation by philosophy during the Age of Enlightenment, their reduction to a phenomenology of medicine and natural science during the first half of the 19th century and their transformation to medical diagnostics since the middle of the 19th century and recently even their functionalization as methodical instrument within the history of science. The following will show the change in meaning of medical semiotics. Modern development and especially the transition to medicine, based on natural science, will be emphasized.
毫无疑问,医学符号学目前正在复兴。从医学理论与历史的背景来看,过去和现在对符号学以及疾病体征的历史解读的不同方面都可以得到阐明:历史科学将其解读为医学中符号的历史,启蒙运动时期哲学对其的高估,19世纪上半叶它被简化为医学和自然科学的现象学,自19世纪中叶以来它转变为医学诊断学,最近甚至在科学史中被功能化为一种方法工具。以下将展示医学符号学意义的变化。将强调现代发展,尤其是向基于自然科学的医学的转变。
