Research paper thumbnail of Visual Rhetoric, Ads, and the Society’s Radiograph

They communicate messages, they structure and present profound data to the public about that certain brand (product, company, institution , etc.), but also about the society in general. Through this paper, we propose to make an analysis of the visual language used by some companies on the Romanian market, in different time frames: the interwar period, the World War II period, and the communist and post-communist periods. The research undertaking shall take shape through the "parsing" of the ads present in magazines issued in the periods subjected to the analysis. The visual rhetoric, as a means of reading images, will guide us in discovering the way a brand's personality is conceived, as well as the way in which the society as a whole is X-rayed, through the decipherment of this communication unit. Our study is an attempt of mapping the Romanian society, underlining the ideological changes, from an advertising perspective.

As a main purpose agenda setting states that mass media tries to create interest to the public regarding some important issues. The theory starts with two main hypotesis: 1 – mass media does not reflect the reality; it filters and shapes it; and 2 – the media focuses only on some particular subjects; in this way the public is made to believe that these specific subjects are most important than others. (Agenda Setting Theory, 2012). For the empirical part of our research, we analyzed a number of five national newspapers and three local ones, for a period of one week. We are trying to find out the way the media agenda is build and present for the public, both at a local level as well at a national one.
