This volume demonstrates that pictures are a central communicative resource for constructing knowledge in economics. By examining discursively structured inventories of images, media-specific relations between text and image, and domain-typical ways of processing images, the essays in this volume draw conclusions about the historical and discursive context of pictures, harnessing perspectives from linguistic, literary, and cultural studies.
