商品簡介
Merging disaster studies and visual culture studies, this study of earthquake discourse outlines a theoretical and conceptual framework for analyzing visual representations and rhetoric of earthquakes and disasters. Using San Francisco’s earthquakes as a case study, the book explores rhetorical and pictorial visual conventions of representing earthquakes and what they can reveal about cultural, political, and economic conflicts. B&w historical photos are included. Annotation ©2017 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
