El presente trabajo aborda un análisis sobre la metodología semiológica y su aplicación a un caso de estudio: la imagen y el pie de imagen que acompañan la descripción crossplay en la enciclopedia virtual Wikipedia. A partir de dicha distinción las autoras reflexionan sobre los límites y posibilidades que esta metodología ofrece al aplicarla a la imagen y al texto, cuestionando el posicionamiento ideológico del investigador, el lenguaje heteronormativo y el potencial polisémico. El artículo se completa con un breve recorrido sobre los usos semiológicos en los estudios subculturales y los estudios de la performatividad del género en la teoría queer, junto a una reflexión sobre el conocimiento situado que repercute en el ámbito epistemológico en este tipo de método aplicados. 2019-12-19 2022-03-22T14:54:17Z 2022-03-22T14:54:17Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://www.revistas.usach.cl/ojs/index.php/ideas/article/view/4280 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/79554 spa https://www.revistas.usach.cl/ojs/index.php/ideas/article/view/4280/26003359 application/pdf Instituto de Estudios Avanzados - Universidad de Santiago de Chile Estudios Avanzados; No 31 (2019); 81-94 Estudios Avanzados; Núm. 31 (2019); 81-94 0718-5014
