Blissymbols is a pictorial language devised in the 1940's by Charles Bliss (born Karl Britz, in Cernivtsi), a dreamer who believed that world peace is only possible by reducing our dependence on verbal language, which would be the main cause for psychological disorders according to Alfred Korzybski, and by adopting a "semantography", a pictorial language representing meaning as clearly as possible.
By now I will use this website to translate the name of some well-known movies in Blissymbols. My sources are: the handbook Semantography (Blissymbolics) Second enlarged Edition (1965), and the Blissary.
