Item description from seller

Hardcover, xii + 254 pages, NOT ex-library. Gently bumped board corners, interior is clean and bright with unmarked text and firm binding, free of inscriptions and stamps. Published without a dust jacket. -- While ideology has been treated widely in CDA-literature, the role played by the interaction of text and image in multiplying meaning and furthering ideological stances has not so far received a lot of attention. Mediating Ideology in Text and Image offers a number of approaches to such analysis, offering students and academics valuable tools for identifying possible discrepancies between the world and the way it is represented through various mediational means. The authors common aim is one of assisting the audience in reading between the lines, thus offering a variety of approaches that may contribute to a better understanding of how ideologies possibly work and how they may be denaturalised from text and image. The articles in part I look at rhetorical strategies used in meaning construction processes unfolding in various kinds of mass media. Part II focuses on the re-semiotization of meaning and looks at how analysing the combination of text and image may contribute to a better understanding of ideological processes brought about by multimodal resources. -- Contents: Introduction: Images in/and news in a globalised world / Ruth Wodak; I. Media constructions of meaning: Rhetorical strategies and intersubjective positioning; Evaluative semantics and ideological positioning in journalistic discourse: A new framework for analysis / P.R.R. White; Identity and stance taking in news interviews: A case study / Pentti Haddington; De-naturalizing ideology: Presupposition and appraisal in biotechnology press releases / Inger Lassen; Understanding public discourse about violence and crime: A challenge for critical discourse analysis at school / Francesco Caviglia; II. Resemiotized meaning: Analysing images and ideologies; From our plan to my promises: Multimodal shifts in political advertisements / Anders Horsbol; Icons as ideology: A media construction / Judith Leah Cross; Getting attention in the media: Interdiscursivity and ideology in advertisements / Henrik Rahm; The big picture: The role of the lead image in print feature stories / Dorothy Economou; News bulletin captions as ideological indices / Konstantinos Kostoudis.…
