- Summary:
- The ‘pictorial turn’ has had significant impact on the human, cultural, religious and social sciences since the middle of the 1990s; theory construction has been primarily oriented towards the western world. This is why one of the primary aims of this volume is the enlargement of theory construction by a different point of view – the Balkan and the Near Eastern one. The central research question of the thesis is that photography opened the door to the visual culture of the West.
- Der pictorial turn, der seit der Mitte der 1990er Jahre die Geistes-, Kultur-, Religions- und Sozialwissenschaften beeinflusst, hat in seiner Theoriebildung bislang eine primär auf die westliche Welt bezogene Perspektive eingenommen. Es ist eines der Ziele des Buchs, die Theoriebildung aus einem anderen Blickwinkel – dem des Balkans und des Nahen Ostens – zu erweitern. Eine zentrale These lautet, dass die Fotografie das Tor zur visuellen Kultur des Westens öffnete.
