| description |
Baudrillard’s concepts of simulacra, simulation and hyperreality were assessed in relation to
dominant themes and subthemes contained in the photographic images of Time magazine’s 9/11
special edition by means of a qualitative thematic content analysis. This event was selected
based both on its becoming an ‘absolute event’ and on the resultant representation of said events
via images. As such, visuals, because they contextually reflect a situation, play a powerful role in
the representation of major world events. This is particularly true of photographs.
