DESCRIPTION:The critical grammatological theory of images focuses on the qu
 estion of how a-visible phenomena – such as the mind and the soul\, emot
 ions\, transcendental ideas and figures – or acts of adoration or discri
 mination get re/presented as images. Departing from the govern- ing maxim 
 of Derrida’s Of Grammatology “Il faut penser la trace avant l’étan
 t”\, it is a matter of different procedures and techniques of ‘imaging
 ’ [Bildgebung] and their history. When imaging something that is not inv
 ested with a physical body\, any kind of materiality or visuality of its o
 wn\, the scene or moment of ‘making an appearance’ is of special inter
 est: that is to say the threshold between immaterial phenomena and picture
 s of any kind – be it a painting\, drawing\, an effigies\, a photography
 \, or digital produced image. At stake is the ex- amination of the ways an
 d modes by which an-iconic\, non-mimetic images get access to the visual w
 orld and the tradition of iconography. In the light of this approach\, one
  may\ndiscover unexpected correspondences between quite diverse and even v
 astly scattered historical constellations\, e.g. between images from the h
 istory of religion and present days natural sciences’ labs.
