discourse theories does not exist and would seem inappropriately redundant depending on the adopted point of view. It is evident that the concept of ideology was refused in objects of analysis and research problems by the first wave of semiotic studies performed by A. J. Greimas.
With rare exceptions, this first wave was concerned with literary objects of analysis that were disconnected of their time and their explicit socio political dimensions. In the 1980s, when semiotics had become more systematically interested in objects of analysis related to the mass media, the term “ideology” fell into disuse, victim of its polysemy caused by certain discursive practices of analyses; therefore, it has never been an operative concept in semiotic studies, except for its understanding as a pursuit of an object of value by the narrative subjects. In the present paper, we will outline a brief history of the semiotics and the concept of “ideology”, reflecting about how early Brazilian semiotics (E. Lopes, J. L. Fiorin and D. P. de Barros) dealt with this issue, anticipating concerns which European semiotics rediscovered more recently in its contemporary practice.

Dans le domaine des sciences du langage, des méthodes alternatives (notamment quantitatives) permettent d’étudier des mouvements et des corpus plus vastes, en visant l’exhaustivité plutôt que l’exemplarité et l’analyse diachronique. Si la fortune de l’analyse automatique de corpus verbaux par la linguistique est bien connue, les analyses d’ensembles d’images plus importants n’ont pas encore fait l’objet de débats substantiels au sein des sciences humaines et des sciences du langage dans l’Europe francophone.
L’objectif principal de ce colloque sera de tester la proposition d’analyse statistique de corpus d’images dans la diachronie formulée par Lev Manovich. L’approche de la « Media Visualization » de Manovich favorise la production et la théorisation de descriptions visuelles de larges corpus d’images provenant de médias divers (peinture, photographie, BD, jeux vidéo, films), archivées en ligne ou stockées dans des bases de données spécialisées. Si les analyses de corpus visuels, contrairement à celles de corpus verbaux, ne permettent pas d’isoler des unités discrètes, Manovich teste néanmoins des paramètres suprasegmentaux pour étudier les collections d’images, les rendre commensurables et enfin transposables en visualisation globale. Les images sont ainsi filtrées selon des paramètres visuels quantifiables — la teinte, la saturation, la luminosité, les niveaux de gris, la position, la dimension de formes, etc.
Cette rencontre, qui rassemblera linguistes, sémioticiens, historiens et philosophes de l’art, ainsi que des scientifiques de la communication, permettra de comparer les différentes méthodes d’analyse des images : en particulier, il s’agira de confronter les approches qualitatives et quantitatives pour essayer de comprendre leurs croisements, leurs conflits, leurs complémentarités.
