Photographic Practices and the Making of Religion

About this book

Welche Rolle spielt die Fotografie fĂŒr die Konstruktion und die Bewahrung religiöser IdentitĂ€ten und Glaubensvorstellungen? Aus interdisziplinĂ€rer Perspektive gehen die BeitrĂ€ge des Buches dieser Frage nach und befassen sich mit der theologischen Rezeption von Fotografie, ihrem Einsatz in kĂŒnstlerischen und in feierlichen Kontexten sowie der materiellen Beschaffenheit von Fotografien als Objekte der Andacht oder als kulturelle Artefakte. Das Themenspektrum reicht dabei von devotionalen Praktiken ĂŒber die Kommerzialisierung sakraler Bilder bis hin zur wissenschaftlichen Erfassung religiöser Traditionen. An der Schnittstelle von Religion, visueller Kultur und Moderne angesiedelt, eröffnet das Buch neue Perspektiven auf die transformative Rolle der Fotografie in religiösen Kontexten vom 19. Jahrhundert bis heute.
