Does anyone know if anyone has done any work on RT and images (instead
of words)?
I'm thinking of optimal and manifest meanings, explicatures and
implicatures, etc, in, eg, the paintings of Bosch and Breugel, and
symbolic meanings intended for a contemporary audience. Perhaps there's
something about images in the work on RT and advertisements?
The work by Forceville on visual metaphors in adverstising might come in handy. Check RT Bibliographical Service (http://www.ua.es/dfing/rt.htm) and click on the "media discourses" thematic section.
