Abstract:
1. Describing parts of communication; sender, recipient and message. Presenting a model with; sender-meaning,recipient-meaning and message-meaning, described as; intention, interpretation and ’literal meaning’.
2. Dismissing the idea of message-meaning as a ’literal meaning’. Describing the message-meaning as context-dependent.
3. Explaining why the message-meaning is independent from sender and recipient.
4. Leading us to conclusion that the message-meaning is to be seen as determined by a third part, ”a judge”.
5. Investigating attributes of this judge. Borrowing the concepts of ’doxa’ and ’habitus’ from Pierre Bourdieu.
6. Dismissing the idea of the sender-meaning as an intention and dismissing the idea of the recipient-meaning as an interpretation. Follow up and further develop the sender-meaning and recipient-meaning. Putting this in context with the newly developed judge-meaning.
7. Illuminate similarities and differences between the meanings.
8. Discussing the significance, possibility and privileges of each of the participants.
