Section:

No. 7 (2002)  Editorial

Abstract:

This paper is an attempt to show the way in which Dickensian women are depicted visually in the 19th century. The two illustrations which we are going to refer to disclose a break of male dominance. The two female characters are seen as visual centres which develop relations of contrariety and contradiction with the other personages.

Keywords:

illustrations as syntagms, the visual semiotics of clothes, figurative dimension, visual dimension, centre(s), semiotic square.
