Building on recent trends in linguistic analysis and visual semiotics, a vibrant interdisciplinary field of inquiry called \"word-and-image studies\" has developed over the past few decades. Much of this new scholarship, however, has originated in the French-speaking world and thus has not been available in English - until now.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWords and Images: A French Rendez-vous\u003c\/em\u003e features six new essays translated from the French by Anthony Wall. These explorations spin an adventurous web through time - from the very beginnings of human language on prehistoric cave walls, to the textual background of early modern and Enlightenment art, to the coexistence of a poem and a coloured drawing on an exterior wall in contemporary Paris - and through interdisciplinary space, from archaeology and anthropology to art history, literary and communications theory, and philosophy of mind.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe volume concludes with a bibliographical essay that provides an extensive summary of the most recent critical studies undertaken in France, Belgium, and Canada.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anthony Wall\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1552382591\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781552382592\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Calgary Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/13\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 276\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2010 pg. 238","brand":"Anthony Wall","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48439751672063,"sku":"9781552382592","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ff368c91-17c8-4e2e-a282-4f3c3325e4a4.jpg?v=1777179164","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/words-and-images-anthony-wall-9781552382592","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
