Abstract

The paper investigates the treatment of the theme of images from the perspective of cultural history. It evaluates the notions of euchrony and thought through images from reference works in cultural history in Brazil. The goal is to gather notes on the status of imaging studies in culturalist research regarding contemporary reflections which question the historicity of origins, admit the difficulties of empathy and point to the inevitable anachrony of the interpretive look.
