Terminologia della grafematica e limiti di una concettualizzazione fonocentrica di grafema

di Luca Mariani

This article is based on an excerpt from my thesis, which focuses on Graphematics terminology. Its central reference is Dimitrios Meletis’s The Grapheme as a universal basic unit of writing, where the author aims to define the grapheme across writing systems. Since the grapheme could be misinterpreted as functionally equivalent to the phoneme, I here propose the notion of «graphematic space», which better describes the relation between sign and meaning.
