Given below are two statements:

Statement I : The semantic code in communication deals with character and characterisation.

Statement II : Roland Barthes describes this code as the voice of the person.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Key Points

•  The semantic code in communication deals with the meaning of words and phrases.
• This includes the meaning of words in isolation, as well as the meaning of words in context.
• Character and characterization are both important aspects of meaning, and so the semantic code plays a role in both.

Hence, Statement I is true.

Statement II : Roland Barthes describes this code as the voice of the person.

• Roland Barthes was a French semiotician who developed a number of theories about the nature of meaning.
• One of his most important concepts was the "proiaretic code," which he also referred to as the "voice of the person."
• The proiaretic code is concerned with the way that characters are presented in a narrative.
• It includes things like the characters' names, their physical appearance, their speech patterns, and their actions. All of these things contribute to the way that readers or viewers understand the characters, and so the proiaretic code is an important part of the semantic code.

Statement II is also true. 

In conclusion, both Statement I and Statement II are true. The semantic code deals with the meaning of words and phrases, and character and characterization are both important aspects of meaning. Roland Barthes described the proiaretic code, which is concerned with the way that characters are presented in a narrative, as the "voice of the person."
