Abstract

Images burst into such a magmatically composite space in an unbridled fashion. On their role in establishing a bridge between reality and imagination, on their generative power to confer sense and meanings upon social space, this contribution intends putting forward a few reflections, beginning with Carlo Ginzburg’s recent book titled Paura, reverenza, terrore. Cinque saggi di iconografia politica (2015): this text is in fact devoted to the enduring nexus in Western history between power and images, the communicative force of which has been used and is still used by politics
