Umberto Ecco


A man that wears many hats, Umberto is an Italian medievalist, semiotician, philosopher, literary critic, and novelist. He has written most about semiotics, linguistics, aesthetics, and morality, although has written childrens' books and many essays. His writings, either novel or philosophic investigation are multilayered in their interdiscipinary nature. Ecco's writting continues to influence the most people outside the philosophic genre.
