Orientations: Space / Time / Image / Word. Word & Image Interactions 5 (Textxet 48) (Textxet Studies in Comparative Literature) (No. 5)

Based on papers presented at the Fifth Triennial Conference of the International Association of Word and Image Studies (IAWIS/AERTI) held in 2002 in Hamburg, the twenty-two essays in this volume cover a wide array of intermedial relations and a great variety of media, from medieval architecture to interactive digital art. They have been arranged in sections labeled History and Identity, Cultural Memory, Texts and Photographs: Cultural Anthropology and Cultural Memory, Mixed-Media Texts: Cartography in Contemporary Art and Fiction, Mixed-Media Texts: Yellow-Cover Books , Artists' Books, and Comics, Intermedia Texts: Logotypes, and Space, Spatialization, Virtual Space. Displaying a range of methods and interests, these contributions by scholars from Europe, the United States, and South America working in different disciplines confirm the impression voiced by IAWIS president Charlotte Schoell-Glass in her introduction that the influence of Visual and Cultural Studies has changed the outlook of many who study the interactions of texts and images .
