Summary
The pictorial turn in the humanities and social sciences emphasizes the political power of images and the extent to which historical, political, social, and cultural processes and practices are shaped visually. The volume gathers twenty-one articles by visual culture studies experts in the fields of Art History, American Studies, History, and Political Science from Europe and the United States. The collection explores the political function and cultural impact of images and how political iconographies interpret norms of actions, support ideological formations, and enhance moral concepts.
