Abstract

Maria Dondero’s recent publication, The Language of Images: The Forms and the Forces, extends arguments formulated within the tradition of visual semiotics to develop focused discussion of three concepts: the materiality of the substrate of images, the force of enunciation in visual analysis, and the metavisual as an approach to aggregate images and corpora.
