In the first three interactive sessions students are introduced to core readings and analytical concepts in visual anthropology and a variety of (audio)visual examples, which they will later use for their group presentations and their final essays. The December session provides space for peer group reflection on students’ mid-term conceptual paper in forms of guided group discussions. In January, film-screenings connected to students’ presentations take place. Students are provided with the opportunity to watch and discuss classic and experimental ethnographic and documentary films in order to critically engage with the politics of image making. We discuss collectively different (audio)visual forms of (self)representations and story-telling, and discuss each group’s analyses.Learning Outcomes
With the seminar students develop a better understanding of the development of ethnographic documentary film and therefore a coherent context for the question of how to study films and visual culture. Students know and apply anthropological concepts and theories in visual anthropology to designated case examples. (Students should also initiate their own search for additional literature relevant to their topic). They learn to critically analyse representations in context, use socio-culturally sensitive concepts of film- and image analysis and learn to discuss contrasting approaches to the genre of ethnographic film.Additional learning outcomes
Students know central theories, key concepts and literature in visual anthropology
Students acquire the skill of critical debate, discussion, rhetoric and analytical thinking
Students enhance their efficiency in academic writing and group work
