A lot of people gave the best name with"vision Age","image Age","image culture", and"interpret drawings Age"etc. It is in the total pointing out to such a kind of culture appearance: with the rapid development of the numeral technique, multi-medium technique and the electric network technique, the medium and the mode that people experience and cognate the external world, is running into the revolutionary alternation. For instance, movie, TV, play, photography, painting, fashion, advertisement, designs, audiovisual network, more over the fictitious image etc ,supply varied vision culture systems in the interest of us. Be living in this kind of culture, image, voice and landscape supplied leisure time for allocating people, mold a variety of politics viewpoints and community actions of people. People cognate and feel the world through images. We call this kind of vision culture"the visualized Age".From the philosophy sense, the visualized Age is a kind of"image turn". The"philology turn"depicted by Rorty in his philosophy narration is received certainly by the"image turn", which is in the other branches of learning along with the common fragment. The"image turn"means that images get in the space by every opening, relatively to the medium culture. Traditional press medium which is attached to"language logos"has been edged out of vision culture medium in the consuming society, and is pushed to"marginalization".The new culture propagation supplies the humanity community research and thinking with new normal form and visual field. The propagation, circulation, and reception of literature have a great dependence upon vision culture. This causes literature to display a new kind of appearance in the visualized Age. The visualized Age is signed with the wide propagation of images. Hence, the historic sign investigation to image and the language medium have been a cut-in point to observe the essence of the visualized Age.
