1. 1. Photography

   A Very Short Introduction

   

   A concise overview of the medium that traces its emergence in the nineteenth century, the evolution of technologies and practices, and the shifting cultural roles of images across art, documentary, journalism, and everyday life. It surveys key debates about realism, authorship, ethics, and power, showing how photographs shape identities and histories within contexts of class, gender, and empire. Linking influential theoretical perspectives to concrete examples, it explains how meaning is made through production, circulation, and display, and assesses how digital imaging reshapes questions of truth, manipulation, and visual culture.
