This book explores how approaching anthropological photographs as history can offer both theoretical and empirical insights into these roles. Photographs are thought to make problematic history because of their ambiguity and rawness. In short, they have too many meanings. The author refutes this prejudice by exploring, through a series of case studies, precisely the potential of this raw quality to open up new perspectives. Taking the nature of photography as her starting point, the author argues that photographs are not merely pictures of things but are part of a dynamic and fluid historical dialogue, which is active not only in the creation of the photograph but in its subsequent social biography in archive and museum spaces, past and present. In this context, the book challenges any uniform view of anthropological photography and its resulting archives. Drawing on a variety of examples, largely from the Pacific, the book demonstrates how close readings of photographs reveal not only western agendas, but also many layers of differing historical and cross-cultural experiences. That is, photographs can spring leaks to show an alternative viewpoint. These themes are developed further by examining the dynamics of photographs and issues around them as used by contemporary artists and curators and presented to an increasingly varied public. This book convincingly demonstrates photographs potential to articulate histories other than those of their immediate appearances, a potential that can no longer be neglected by scholars and institutions.</p>...2660634Raw Histories10061006https://www.gandhi.com.mx/raw-histories-9781000181296/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3755434/e9f52898-6f7f-42b1-bc41-724ec9badb24.jpg?v=638385826493770000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20219781000181296_W3siaWQiOiI2NGQwYmEzMC03OTRmLTQ3NDUtYWI0MC1hOGIxOTQ4MjM2ZDMiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjEwNjYsImRpc2NvdW50IjowLCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjEwNjYsImluY2x1ZGVzVGF4Ijp0cnVlLCJwcmljZVR5cGUiOiJXaG9sZXNhbGUiLCJjdXJyZW5jeSI6Ik1YTiIsImZyb20iOiIyMDI1LTA1LTIzVDE3OjAwOjAwWiIsInRvIjoiMjAyNS0wNi0zMFQyMzo1OTo1OVoiLCJyZWdpb24iOiJNWCIsImlzUHJlb3JkZXIiOmZhbHNlfSx7ImlkIjoiMWRjZTMzNTYtNWJkNS00ZGJjLTk5ZjktOTYwM2RhNWFkODBlIiwibGlzdFByaWNlIjoxMDA2LCJkaXNjb3VudCI6MCwic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjoxMDA2LCJpbmNsdWRlc1RheCI6dHJ1ZSwicHJpY2VUeXBlIjoiV2hvbGVzYWxlIiwiY3VycmVuY3kiOiJNWE4iLCJmcm9tIjoiMjAyNS0wNy0wMVQwMDowMDowMFoiLCJyZWdpb24iOiJNWCIsImlzUHJlb3JkZXIiOmZhbHNlfV0=9781000181296_<p>Photographs have had an integral and complex role in many anthropological contexts, from fieldwork to museum exhibitions.
