The Semiotic Reading of âLibertyâ in Alfred Tennysonâs âOf Old Sat Freedom on the Heightsâ and Eugene Delacroixâs âLiberty Leading the Peopleâ
Journal Title: Journal of Philology and Educational Sciences - Year 2022, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Ferdinand Victor Eugene Delacroixâs well-known painting âLiberty Leading the Peopleâ (1830) and Alfred, Lord Tennysonâs verse âOf Old Sat Freedom on the Heightsâ (1834) have been read in various ways. In this paper, we try to ignore the historical context, instead, we focus on disclosing the analogy between these selected works by decoding the signs and elements, and presenting the hidden meanings. Through a close analysis, we shed light on the concept of âlibertyâ within the female figure which seems to be the focal point in both the image and the text. This notion is related to manufactured power relations (Michel Foucault) and the concept of ideology (Louis Althusser).
