To look like the birds: about the enunciation structure present on a kind of cartographic map
Abstract
Some human sciences’ researchers are interested on studying visual texts that are not valorized by the “great art”. This recent interest for images that are not framed by art history discipline reflect the upgrowing role that visuality plays nowadays. According to the steps of Algirdas Julien Greimas, that has always encouraged the studies on different domains of visual expression - regardless the implied expression’s substance - we have chosen as an object of analysis a textual genre extra-aesthetical - a cartographic map - with the intention of studying how can be structured the enunciation of a particular type of map called view like a bird’s flight.
