Abstract

This paper takes into consideration that knowledge organization involves semantic analysis and that Information Science needs a theoretical reference for studies that focus on the conceptual representation of knowledge domains. It presents methodological-theoretical alternatives rooted in Linguistics and that are based semantically on language studies: Valence Theory, Case Grammar, Conceptual Graphs andthe Functional Grammar Theory. It prioritizes methodological-theoretical proposals based on the principle of interpretation of semantic problems that offer a way to consider and reflect on issues related to the different semantic aspects in the field of Knowledge Organization.
