520 |a Taking nine case studies from the 1990s' French-speaking world (from France, North Africa and the Caribbean), this book attempts to define the interaction between non-fictional written text (caption, essay, fragment, poem) and photographic image. Having considered three categories of ̀intermediality' between text and photography-the collaborative, the self-collaborative and the retrospective-the book concludes that the dimensions of their interaction are not simple and twofold (Visuality versus/alongside textuality), but threefold and therefore ̀complex' Thus, the photo-text, as defined here, is concerned as much with orality-the demotic, the popular, the vernacular-as it is with visual and written culture, the way in which text-image collaborations give space to the spoken, spectral traces of human discourse suggests that the key element of the photo-text is its radical provisionality. --Book Jacket.
