›Grammaticalization‹ within Pictorial Art? Searching for Diachronic Principles of Change in Picture and Language
Abstract
Based on theoretical and methodological considerations regarding the inter-relationship between picture and language with respect to their diachronic development, the article deals with the question whether and to what extent the process of grammaticalization as a general principle of language change can be likened to the development of narrative pictures. Against this back-ground, it is argued with respect to a broader perspective of image science that a level of comparison for picture and language can be found within a functional-relational semiotic account.
