Abstract
This paper examines two paradoxical characteristic of images: images can be both universal and culturally specific. In the context of globalization and decolonization, the strategic employment of the two seemingly opposing characteristics of images can greatly help overcome the challenges in comparative rhetoric. The connection, application and theorization of visual rhetoric within comparative rhetoric, both of which are comparatively new, crossing-boarder disciplines, hold considerable promise in further developing productive communications between Western and non-Western cultures.
