Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
The terms mentioned in the title represent the increased importance of image research in the cultural and social sciences. Within visual anthropology, too, there are various branches that deal with different sub-apertures of the subject. Starting from the historical development of image research in our subject (which in part differs significantly from that in art history), the seminar will focus on its significance for the present and in particular on the popular cultural dimension of image research. The goal is that at the end of the seminar students will have a different, more critical and differentiated view of images than before. The main theories about image interpretation will be discussed as well as the impact of images, the associated interpretive sovereignties and what images can (and should) trigger. Furthermore, the importance of image research for the treatment of current topics will be illuminated.
