HR4003 FROM COLONIALISM TO TOURISM: EARLY PHOTOGRAPHY IN ASIA

This course introduces you to the relationships between photography, colonialism, and tourism in nineteenth-century Asia. You will examine how photographic images participated as discursive objects in various contexts for different purposes and mediums. You will study a diverse range of images produced by western and local photographers that document and interpret Asia. Through museum visits and conversations with curators, you will develop and refine skills in fieldwork research in preparation for your final-year project.
