Dear Colleages,
I'm interested in visual and pictorial respresentations. Actaully, I have an idea that they have have a relationship with interextuality.
Please, there is any studies that focus on the intertextual analysis in the mutimodal (visual/pictorial) respresnetation, let me know.
Thanks
Hayder
hi . of course there is a relationship between pictorial representation and intertexuality since intertexuality stands for the relationship between different texts. in my opinion, visualization is a way of presenting a text; it can be considered as a pictorial text. as I stated, a written text can be related to its pictorial text or representation. best
Dear Hayder,
When the meaning of a text depends or is its own visualization as argued by Farangis, this is called iconicity, where a text is an icon of itself, but not intertextuality as defined by De Beaugrande and Dressler (1981) as subsuming "the ways in which the production and reception of a given text depends upon the participants’ knowledge of other texts" (p. 183).
There is no direct and automatic relation between intertextuality and visual, pictorial, and multimodal communication. In ts simplest form, intertextuality may refer you to a written text. However, intertextuality in a text (written, oral, or even pictorial) could refer/send you to other (written, pictorial, or multimodal) scenes or texts. For instance, a written text could allude to something which you may readily visualize in your mind in the news, documentary, or film you have heard or watched. This is why I said there is no direct link between intertexuality and multimodality.
Dear Zouheir Maalej,
I would love to thank you so much for your explanation. Honestly, I found some ads included texts and pictures. The texts in the adds show that there is intertextuality and pictorial metaphor at the same time. That's why I asked if there is a relationship between them.
Thanks
Hayder
Dear Farangis Shahidzade,
This is what i meant honestly because there are a lot of Arabic texts which show intertextuality besides the pictorial representations which is actually pictorial metaphor.
Thanks
Hayder
of course it does see the schema theory
Of course, it does, there is a term known as "ekphrasis", or the written description of a piece of art. There are some poems that are based on paintings and vice versa.
