本文发展了一个理论框架来理解体育摄影的含义。特别是，它确定了两类作为意义传递者的摄影特征。第一类是照片中的内容或话语，包括外表、姿势和身体姿势、面部表情、情绪表现和镜头角度。第二类是语境，它促成了照片的话语文本。语境包括照片出现的视觉空间、照片的标题、周围的文字、照片出现的文章的标题和实质性内容。我以北美流行杂志上刊登的1984年和1988年奥运会照片为例，展示了照片的这些不同特征如何使强调性别差异的男权解读成为可能。
This paper develops a theoretical framework for understanding how and what sports photographs mean. In particular, it identifies two categories of photographic features as conveyors of meanings. The first category is the content or discourse within the photograph, which includes physical appearances, poses and body positions, facial expressions, emotional displays, and camera angles. The second category is the context, which contributes to the discursive text of the photograph. The context includes the visual space in which the photograph appears, its caption, the surrounding written text, and the title and the substantive nature of the article in which the photograph appears. Using 1984 and 1988 Olympic Games photographs appearing in popular North American magazines, I show how these various features of photographs may enable patriarchal readings that emphasize sexual difference.
