Propaganda and Illustration



What is propaganda?

The image seems literal, but it is full of symbols. It produces myths.Constructing the world/ constructing meaning and making people think about something in a certain way.How do we make people look heroic? Not life as it is, but life as we'd like it to be.

A different approach: pictorial illustration

Careless talk costs lives,
Representation
Metaphor/ metonym
Myth
Ideology
