| Inhalt | This course explores photography as a historical form and cultural practice for Southern African history and memory. The course investigates how we can value what historical photographs bring to the study of southern African pasts, while addressing the political, ethical and epistemological challenges posed by colonial photography to postcolonial research and scholarship. We will work with photographic archives on Southern Africa kept at the Basler Afrika Bibliographien and develop research projects on selected collections that include textual, visual and audio source material. The aim of the course is to write essays, co-authored by students, about particular photographs and assemble these essays in a small publication. Students will be given the opportunity to go through a careful editorial process, and conceptualise and assume responsibility for the production (layout, editing, review, etc.) of the publication. |
