Visual culture has become one of the most dynamic fields of
scholarship, a reflection of how the study of human culture
increasingly requires distinctively visual ways of thinking and
methods of analysis. Bringing together leading international
scholars to assess all aspects of visual culture, the Handbook aims
to provide a comprehensive and authoritative overview of the
subject. The Handbook embraces the extraordinary range of
disciplines which now engage in the study of the visual - film and
photography, television, fashion, visual arts, digital media,
geography, philosophy, architecture, material culture, sociology,
cultural studies and art history. Throughout, the Handbook is
responsive to the cross-disciplinary nature of many of the key
questions raised in visual culture around digitization,
globalization, cyberculture, surveillance, spectacle, and the role
of art. The Handbook guides readers new to the area, as well as
experienced researchers, into the topics, issues and questions that
have emerged in the study of visual culture since the start of the
new millennium, conveying the boldness, excitement and vitality of
the subject.
