Science - Psychology / 'bear' style-component of a semiotic square along with 'snob' style, 'chameleon' style and 'dandy' style
English term or phrase: 'bear' style
Let us point out here that Landowski analysed dandyism at length from a socio-semiotic point of
view, inter-defining the dandy in relation to the snob, the 'chameleon' and the 'bear', starting with
the dynamics of identity (centrifugal or centripetal) around a social figure that plays the role of
pole-of-attraction as well as that of pole-of-repulsion. These dynamics can be defined according to
the category 'disjunction vs. conjunction' projected on to the semiotic square:

Explanation:
Ландовски съпоставя контето и сноба, "хамелеона" и "мечката".
Доколкото аз разбирам, контето е хамелеон и като такъв привлича, а снобът е мечка и отблъсква. Освен това, думата "сноб" има отрицателна окраска.
