Extractions: Course List This course in visual anthropology explores several related topics surrounding the use of still photography: what photographs show (and do not show), how our culture uses photographic images of non-Western peoples, and how photography can be used appropriately in anthropological research. During the term we also will be developing critical toolsquestions, concepts, techniquesfor describing, interpreting, and analyzing images. Some of the specific questions we will explore include: How have photographs of non-Western peoples been used in our culture? What kinds of bias and stereotypes, stylistic conventions, commercial and political agendas shape what the camera records? Who controlled and created the historical images of people in other cultures that we see today? What are some of the problems involved in using old photographs to reconstruct the histories of other peoples? To what degree do images taken by indigenous or "native" photographers differ from those taken by outsiders?

K-State Professor Releases Documentary On Pioneer Of Visual Anthropology

Extractions: News release prepared by: Michelle Hall, 785-532-6415 Thursday, January 23, 2003 K-STATE PROFESSOR RELEASES DOCUMENTARY ON PIONEER OF VISUAL ANTHROPOLOGY MANHATTAN Harald Prins, professor of anthropology at Kansas State University, has co-authored a new film on the pioneering visual anthropologist Edmund Carpenter. The documentary, "Oh, What a Blow That Phantom Gave Me!" was recently released by Media Generation, West Hills, Calif., and was made possible by a grant from the Rock Foundation in New York City. Prins worked on the 55-minute film with John Bishop, adjunct associate professor of world arts and cultures from the University of California-Los Angeles. "Oh, What a Blow," focuses on Carpenter's role in the development of visual anthropology and media ecology; he explored the borderlines between ethnography and media for more than 50 years and was the first professional anthropologist to host a national television program. He was also the first to focus attention on the revolutionary impact of film and photography on traditional tribal peoples. Much of Carpenter's fieldwork took place in the Canadian Arctic and Papua, New Guinea. Carpenter also headed the first anthropology department in which visual media formed a central component of the curriculum (California State University-Northridge, 1957-67) and, through collaboration with Marshall McLuhan, broke new ground in the cross-cultural understanding of modern media. Carpenter is now recognized as a pioneer in the emerging field of media ecology.

http://www.research-projects.unizh.ch/phil/unit66800/area186/p2686.htm

Extractions: I The discussion about the place, significance and informational value of illustrations, which has lost none of its relevance since, was particularly intense in the first half of the 18th Century. A contribution to this debate written by Picart himself has survived. It has generally been said but rarely shown concretely (if at all, then only with individual pictures), that the image has been more important than the text in the transmission of ideas. Thus, an analysis of Picart's work, which is an attempt at a comprehensive visual documentation of all the religions then known, is an interesting case study. II Picart's method in creating the body of illustrations, in which depictions of the ceremonies of the entire world known at the time were collected, can be demonstrated particularly well with two examples. The first consists of a group of illustrations of the Jewish community in Amsterdam, which are based on his direct observations (field study). The second is the series of illustrations of Hinduism, about which religion he had no direct knowledge. Because Picart compiled diverse sources, namely illustrations from travel books as well as Indian pictures (miniatures), to make these engravings, they serve to show how the character of images evolves over time.
