bibliophage's review
Sooo many interesting chapters with really cool ideas--some I'm conversing with, some I'm resisting, some I'm totally into and find fascinating. I'm eager for more, I think W.J.T. Mitchell will be next.
My favorite chapters:
Introduction
The Psychology of Rhetorical Images
The Rhetoric of Visual Arguments
Framing the Fine Arts Through Rhetoric
Defining Film Rhetoric: The Case of Hitchcock's Vertigo
Doing Rhetorical History of the Visual: The Photograph and the Archive
*Melting-Pot Ideology, Modernist Aesthetics, and the Emergence of Graphical Conventions: The Statistical Atlases of the United States, 1874–1925* (probably my favorite?)
The Rhetoric of Irritation: Inappropriateness as Visual/Literate Practice
Framing the Study of Visual Rhetoric: Toward a Transformation of Rhetorical Theory
More later (if/when I have time to write more).
