Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
Between the poles of an exclusively ethnographic (informational) value of an object and a purely art-related approach moves the question of the assessment of objects of material culture. The course offers a critical approach to fascination, rejection and appropriation of objects by means of selected examples. The course provides an overview of theoretical concepts for the interpretation and analysis of ethnographic objects in the context of their acquisition, marketing and presentation history by means of concrete examples.
Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel
On the basis of an object, which is either given by the course instructor or chosen by the student, its function, meaning, power and instrumentalization will be analyzed. Each participant of the seminar has to interpret such an object reflexively and to work on this 1.) in a short presentation in the seminar, as well as 2.) in the form of a written seminar paper. The overall grade is based on a) the active participation in the seminar, b) the short presentation and c) the seminar paper.
