In the context of the ongoing discussion about the relationship between image and language, this collective volume reexamines this issue while exploring the various possibilities of articulation and structuring of each conceptual repertoire, taking into account both the expanding range of the term "image" and the increasing openness of the term "language".

The eleven texts that follow unfold aspects of the current debate regarding the interfaces between the visual arts and those of language (poetry, literature, criticism, aesthetic issues), with a focus on a balanced distribution of attention to both image and language matters.

In this sense, the approaches included in this volume come from different fields, constituting a wide range of interests, from philosophy to the history and theory of art, as well as from literary studies to architecture and contemporary art criticism, promoting this discussion that always remains open.
