Abstract
Greimas' semiotics and pragmatics are generally considered as opposite perspectives in the study of the significant process: while in semiotics only the infernal referent of discourse is considered, in pragmatics the core is the referent. We begin with Parret's hypothesis to homologate semiotics and pragmatics on the basis of five axes in inclusive relation, and where the subjectivity -as an organizing principle of language- is the dominant element. We have attempted to realize a textual analysis of Gongora's sonnet: "La dulce boca que a gustar convida", in which we include the study of modal competence and communicative intentionality, fundamentally, with the goal of context semiotization. We think this exercise shows the possible harmonization that can exist between semiotic and pragmatic studies, and especially its essential complementarity.
