摘要：

Semiotics is a theory of signs, beings whose whole identity is to be not a thing or idea in itself but to signify something else. Thomistic intentionality theory serves a similar purpose when applied to ideas and sense perceptions in the realistic theory of knowledge. Ideas and perceptions are not objects or things in themselves, but their whole identity consists in being "about" something else, in "intending" or "stretching out" to signify or be a sign of something else.
