texts & others
“The question of whether X is a mode or not is a question specific to a particular community.”(Kress et al. 2000: 43)
…it seems that in the community of (these specific) historians layout/design is not considered to be a mode (to present history)
visual history & history design“[T]he differences (...) between the picture and the statement disappear when we contrast not the statement but the text or the story with the picture. And this, in turn, would mean that the visual and optical metaphors which we encounter so often in historical theory show a correct insight into the nature of the historical text after all.”(Ankersmit 1994: 223)
