This paper elaborates the visual rhetorical consciousness of Mikhail Bakhtin’s chronotope concept through theoretical problematization and theoretical reconstruction. First, it attempts to outline Barthes’ perspective on visual rhetoric and its time-space category by referring to the concurrent word-image, symbolic systematicity, and outer dialogicity. Second, an alternative approach is explored for grasping the dynamics and functions of visual rhetoric by articulating Mikhail Bakhtin’s chronotope concept. Furthermore, the visual rhetorical consciousness of chronotope could be defined as “the meaning parabola which projects from word to image,” “the symbolic system which proceeds from sequence to disorder,” “the ideological environment which struggles from the local to the global.” Finally, a preliminary analysis of the primary vision of the 2014 Taipei LGBT parade is conducted to valuate the effectiveness and persuasiveness embodied by specific visual rhetorical strategies.
