O livro reúne capítulos produzidos por diversos autores, com o objetivo de socializar resultados de pesquisas acerca da(s) linguagem(ns) e seus usos sociais. Assim, a proposta desta obra representa o rompimento de um silenciamento de vozes, a valorização de dizeres de diferentes sujeitos e o diálogo entre pesquisadores.
Com a ampliação das interações entre sujeitos, por meio de mídias digitais, tornou-se muito recorrente a circulação de textos multissemióticos, que envolvem diferentes linguagens e se organizam por meio de diferentes recursos, tais como imagens, cores, movimentos, sons, palavras etc. Nesse sentido, esta obra tem por proposta suscitar discussão acerca dos protocolos de leitura para o trabalho com produções multissemióticas, de modo especial, com o gênero videoanimação em sala de aula. A obra conta com uma proposta didática que poderá ser adaptada e utilizada por professores no encaminhamento de atividades na perspectiva dos protocolos de leitura.
Este livro oferece ao leitor, por meio de uma abordagem didática, atenta à linguagem, que vai direto ao ponto, aspectos sobre a teorização de Formação Docente e as suas subdivisões temáticas. Houve a preocupação, ainda, em estabelecer, de forma crítica, aapresentação dicotômica entre a relação teoria x prática no tocante ao processo de formação do professor e as relações sociais implícitas. Os capítulos resumem aspectos significativos relacionados à formação docente continuada, aos letramentos, aos multiletramentos, às tecnologias aplicadas ao ensino e à relação intrínseca dos gêneros textuais como ferramentas de produção discursiva. Destina-se a todos os professores, desde a educação infantil até os de Programas de Pós-graduação, assim como aos alunos dos cursos de Licenciaturas e Pedagogia.
This second edition of the landmark book "Reading Images" builds on its reputation as the first systematic and comprehensive account of the grammar of visual design. Drawing on an enormous range of examples from children's drawings to textbook illustrations, photo-journalism to fine art, as well as three-dimensional forms such as sculpture and toys, the authors examine the ways in which images communicate meaning. Features of this fully updated second edition include: new material on moving images and on color, a discussion of how images and their uses have changed through time, websites and web-based images, and ideas on the future of visual communication. "Reading Images'" focus on the structures or "grammar" of visual design: color, perspective, framing and composition, provides the reader with an invaluable "tool-kit" for reading images and makes it a must for anyone interested in communication, the media and the arts.
Lou Sciortino’s life in Sicily is not quite what his New York granddad had in mind. In metropolitan Catania there’s more to risk at a neighbourhood barbecue than in a dark street – especially when Uncle Sal Scali is involved. The Don decides he doesn’t like the way things are shaping up for his grandson, and decides it’s time he paid one last visit to the old country. That’s when the bullets really start to fly.

This book seeks to extend research on framing beyond linguistic and cognitive perspectives by examining framing in visual and multimodal texts and their impact on moral cognition and attitudes. Drawing on perspectives from frame semantics, blending theory, relevance theory, and pragmatics, the volume establishes a model of "pictorial framing", arguing that subtle alterations in the visual presentation of issues around judgment and choice in such texts impact perception, and applies this framework to a range of case studies from Egyptian, British, and American cartoons and illustrations. The book demonstrates the affordances of applying this framework in enhancing our understanding of both the nature of word-image relations and issues of representation in the op-ed genre, but also in other forms of media more generally. The volume will be of particular interest to students and scholars in multimodality, critical discourse analysis, cognitive linguistics, social psychology, and communication studies.
