Welcome! A few years ago, I discovered an application that artists employ in their works to bring cultural awareness to their audiences. Having discerned this semiotic theory that applies to literature, music, art, film, and the media, I have devoted the blog,Theory of Iconic Realism to explore this theory. The link to the publisher of my book is below. If you or your university would like a copy of this book for your library or if you would like to review it for a scholarly journal, please contact the Edwin Mellen Press at the link listed below. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Thank you for visiting. I hope you will find the information insightful. ~ Dr. Jeanne Iris

Fourth Week of Advent, and looking forward to 2026


As the final week of Advent 2025 arrives, I am concluding my obligations at the university, and finally, I have the time to enjoy the splendor of peace and preparation for the Christmas season and the beginning of a New Year. Although we only have a dusting of snow on the ground, we've been promised by the meteorologists that snow is on its way. Therefore, I fill my heart and mind with gratitude for health, love, music, and joy in my life as I prepare for this festive end to 2025. 

Wishing you all a blessed Holiday Season!
