Author

Youzheng Li was born in Peking, 1936. Currently he is an American independent scholar living in the San Francisco Bay area. As a former vice-president of the International Association for Semiotic Studies (IASS, 2004-1014) he had been an academic visitor or visiting researcher to various philosophy departments and humanities institutions in China, USA, Germany, France, Japan, Taiwan and HK between 1982-2017, being engaged in interdisciplinary theoretical studies in cross-cultural contexts, including historical semiotics and semiotic ethics. His special intellectual position is mainly due to his uniquely long underground independent research experience during the Maoist period with a focus on the humanities in general and contemporary western philosophies in particular. In 1978, Li became a researcher at the Institute of Philosophy, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. He has published dozens of academic books of theoretical writings and translations of modern western theoretical classics, including those by Husserl, Levi-Strauss, Riceour, Barthes, Rorty and others.
