Taylor & Francis Ltd Working Images
Book SynopsisVisual methods such as drawing, painting, video, photography and hypermedia offer increasingly accessible and popular resources for ethnographic research. In Working Images, prominent visual anthropologists and artists explore how old and new visual media can be integrated into contemporary forms of research and representation. Drawing upon projects undertaken both ''at home'' in their native countries and abroad in locations such as Ethopia and Venezuela, the book''s contributors demonstrate how visual methods are used in the field, and how these methods can produce and communicate knowledge about our own and other cultures. As well as focusing on key issues such as ethics and the relationship between word and image, they emphasize the huge range of visual methods currently opening up new possibilities for field research, from cartoons and graphic art to new media such as digital video and online technologies.Table of Contents1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Tkaid Road Travelling and Representation in
Book SynopsisThe Tôkaidô Road offers a comparative study of the Tôkaidô road''s representations during the Edo (1600-1868) and Meiji (1868-1912) eras. Throughout the Edo era, the Tôkaidô highway was the most important route of Japan and transportation was confined to foot travel. In 1889, the Tôkaidô Railway was established, at first paralleling and eventually almost eliminating the use of the highway. During both periods, the Tôkaidô was a popular topic of representation and was depicted in a variety of visual and literary media. After the installation of the railway in the Meiji era, the Tôkaidô was presented as a landscape of progress, modernity and westernisation. Such representations were fundamental in shaping the Tôkaidô and the realm of travelling in the collective consciousness of the Japanese people.Trade Review'Of great value for those interested in the history of travelling in Japan, and more specifically of travelling along the Tôkaidô.' - Society for Japanese Arts Newsletter'What Treganou gives is a compendium of the culture and history of the Tôkaidô in the seventeenth to nineteenth centuries.
