Political iconographies are taken to interpret norms of actions, support ideological formations, and enhance moral concepts. Visual rhetorics are understood as active players in the construction and contestation of the political realm and public space. The twenty-one articles by scholars from Europe and the United States explore the political function and cultural impact of images from the perspectives of Art History, American Studies, Visual Culture Studies, History, and Political Science. The contributions in particular address the complex interplay between agent and addressee in the public space as well as issues of national identity, discourses of inclusion and exclusion, and the designation of political spaces within transnational contexts. The publication is part of the interdisciplinary research initiative "Perceiving and Understanding: Functions, Perception Processes, Forms of Visualizations, Cultural Strategies of Pictures and Texts" at the University of Regensburg. 606 $aArt$xPolitical aspects 606 $aArt and society 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aArt$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aArt and society. 676 $a700.1/03 686 $aEC 2450$2rvk 701 $aHebel$b Udo J$01045242 701 $aWagner$b Christoph$f1964-$0850737 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456381303321 996 $aPictorial cultures and political iconographies$92488222 997 $aUNINA
