HART 363 - HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY Credits: 3 Roland Barthes described the emergence of photography in the early nineteenth century as an "anthropological revolution in man's history," a "truly unprecedented type of consciousness." This lecture class aims to examine this proposition by examining the history of photography in the nineteenth century as it develops within a number of specific thematics, from the medium's conception in the late 18th century through to debates in the 20th century about photography's relationship to artistic and social issues. The structure of the class will allow for individual sessions to combine a formal, illustrated presentation with some detailed discussion of particular images and texts. Taken as a whole, the class will look at photography as a cultural phenomenon as much as an art form, critically studying the various discursive arenas that this new medium helped to foster and redefine.
