Abstract

[The article deals with the semiotic roots of the signs of the Old Russian znamenny notation. The source of the znamenny notation was the Paleo-Byzantine notation. In Russia, the znamenny notation has been developing for more than seven centuries. The methodological approach to the study of znamenny semiography in this article is based on the theory of the sign by Charles Peirce, according to which there are three main classes of signs: signs-icons, signs-indices and signs-symbols. Banners - signs of znamenny notation, are also divided into three types: signs-icons - alphabet signs, popevki (kokizy) - signs-indexes, and fit outlines - respectively signs-symbols. There are also mega-signs that regulate vocal technique of chants. Znamenny chant is viewed as the musical language of the Russian Middle Ages, the melody of which is closely related to the intonation of words in chants.]
