Description
Summary:This paper’s purpose is to deal with the expression of judgements in text/image relationships. A number of authors have already written a lot about these, whether in semiotics (see Klinkenberg, Le Guern, Vaillant) or in linguistic and didactic frameworks (see Garcia-Debanc, Leclaire-Halté, etc.). Nonetheless, the question of a judgement, expressed by a text on an image, or expressed by an image on a text, is not often mentioned. We propose to use the theoretical tools developed by Gosselin (who produced an impressive work about the linguistic expression of modalities) in order to describe the enunciative frame of the judgement relationship that can take place between a text and an image. We will seek to explain how a judgement is calculated, and this, in two directions: a text expressing a judgement about an image, and an image expressing a judgement about a text. To begin with, we will develop our theoretical framework (based on Gosselin’s work on modalities and on Klinkenberg’s work on text/image relationships) and show a few examples of “text/image judgements”. We will then describe the enunciative characteristics of judgement in such a framework: the instance of validation, the degree of responsibility engaged by the speaker, and the different linguistic and iconic marks which semantically mean judgement or are pragmatically used to create inferences, contributing to the calculation of modality.
