Über diesen Podcast
"The Visual Past” showcases the latest research by scholars who
explore the visual, spatial, and material culture that shaped the
Ottoman world. The series will address not only objects, images,
and calligraphy, but also works of architecture that were
themselves contexts for other media. Before being designated
historical landmarks or enshrined in museum displays, these rich
artistic and architectural products constituted an intrinsic part
of Ottoman life, intersecting with and affecting all levels of
society. Episodes in this series investigate crucial issues about
sight and seeing in the Ottoman Empire, including the power of the
gaze, the depiction of human and animal imagery, and questions of
style, aesthetics, and patronage. The series also explores
transformations in technology that opened up new possibilities
during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries for the popular
dissemination of images through photographs, print media, and film.
