Description
Résumé:The authors outline the topic of visuality in the 21st century in a trans- and interdisciplinary theoretical frame from philosophy through communication theory, rhetoric and linguistics to pedagogy. As some scholars of visual communication state, there is a significant link between the downgrading of visual sense making and a dominantly linguistic view of cognition.

Our entire world is set in language, and language is the model of human activities. This volume questions the approach in the imagery debate.
