Abstract

Reading images is part of our daily lives. However, are we able to identify the persuasive force that many images carry? The present work aims to draw a descriptive analysis of the material components that build one of the images of the series “Paralel Evren Savaş Bariş” by Uğur Gallenkuş. Furthermore, we will present the possible meaning effects raised through the argumentation. The work is justified as it seeks to develop a systematic learning about reading images. We take as theoretical foundation the postulates of Patrick Chauraudeau (2013) and Barthes (1990) regarding the process of image construction and Mendes’ image grid (2010) for the levels of construction of meaning, of images. Finally, we will use the contributions of Koch; Elias (2018) and Charaudeau (2016) regarding to argumentation. As a result, it is expected to contribute to a significant teaching of reading, whether verbal and/or non-verbal texts.
