The imaginary as a critical concept originated in the twentieth
century and has been theorized in diverse ways. It can be
understood as a register of thought; the way we interpret the
world; the universe of images, signs, texts, and objects of
thought. In this volume, it is explored as it manifests itself in
encounters between the verbal and the visual. A number of the
essays brought together here explore the transposition of the
imaginary in illustrations of texts and verbal renditions of
images, as well as in comic books based on paintings or on verbal
narratives. Others analyze ways in which books deal with film or
television and investigate the imaginary in digital media. Special
attention is paid to the imaginary of places and the relationship
of the imaginary with memory. Written in English and French, these
contributions by European and American scholars demonstrate the
various concerns and approaches characteristic of contemporary
scholarship in word and image studies.
