A very in depth analysis on visual imaginary. The book covers a variety of perspectives that deals with visual culture and imaginary from psychoanalysis to sociological perspectives. A great introductory book for any postgraduate student
Does not exactly provide what I need in my classes.
Fascinating read and essential to anyone interested in image analysis
Excellent anthology, containing a wide range of engaging, stimulating, important essays relevant to image studies. Selection is intelligent and imaginative. Editorial texts are of adequate length and substance. Will recommend this to final-year students in cultural history as ideal introduction to ways of understanding the visual sources that they are using.
I will write the review after the end of the course.
very useable as a reader!
A very good selection of key texts . Particularly of interest the chapters "Phenomenology" , "Image as thought" & "Fabrication" as they engage with set of texts that are far more challenging than traditional literature in visual culture theory.
This reader is ideal for fine art students grappling with the complexity of the world of images. While there are other readers on the market the breath and structure of this publication gives students an invaluable and readable introduction to the key thinkers in this field. If students are to buy only one book it should be this one.
Very good selection of texts, only concern is that I wish the selections were slightly longer.
the reader, as always, good for suplemental reading. i reccomend it to my library as well
Excellent selection of primary readings, edited to manageable length for undergraduates. Also the selection of authors is just about perfect for a visual culture studies class and the cross-referencing of themes providing the editors has been helpful in adapting the book to the existing course syllabus.
