Doctoral Dissertation | University of Hildesheim, Germany | 2025–2026
This dissertation investigates how intersemiotic translation and extended textual image descriptions can enhance access to iconic photographs for people with visual impairments. Combining semiotics, translation theory, and case-study analysis, it explores how photographic meaning, symbolism, and historical context can be communicated through verbal representation.
