Recenzii
"Visual Literacy brings intellectual rigor to a concept that often passes as an unexamined cliché. This collection of essays explores how well the metaphor of ‘reading’ elucidates the viewing and interpretation of images, whether artistic, political, or scientific. The volume will find its place on the bookshelves of both serious scholars of vision and instructors who rise to the challenge of integrating diverse visual artifacts into the undergraduate curriculum."—James D. Herbert, University of California, Irvine
"Given that much university education is dominantly and sometimes entirely text-based, the central issue of whether there can and ought to be a stronger emphasis on the visual is a valuable, challenging, perhaps even threatening one, for denizens of academia."--Margaret Woodward, Eureka Street

Descriere
