iconography Explanation: I would forget about the 'levantamiento', which is tautologous in English, and just put the keyword 'iconography', explained here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iconography Iconography in disciplines other than art history Iconography, often of aspects of popular culture, is a concern of other academic disciplines including Semiotics, Anthropology, Sociology, Media Studies and Cultural Studies. These analyses in turn have affected conventional art history, especially concepts such as signs in semiotics Discussing imagery as iconography in this way implies a critical "reading" of imagery that often attempts to explore social and cultural values. Iconography is also used within film studies to describe the visual language of cinema, particularly within the field of genre criticism. |

peer agreement (net): +1Image/picture search Explanation: Image is much more common than picture if Google is anything to go by. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2009-08-29 00:40:47 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I think the text would need a lot of paraphrasing - something like: "Image search, which involves contacting leading specialists for digital or analogue pictures on a specific theme". I think the specialists may be libraries rather than photographers. |
