Colonising Camera: Photographs In Making Of Namibian History Paperback – January 15, 1999 by Wolfram Hartmann (Author) Although visual anthropology has produced considerable amounts of work on Africa, there has until very recently been no such thing as African visual history. This study of colonial photographs from Namibia under South African rule, employing all the rigor of traditional historical inquiry, is among the first of such initiatives. This project thus constitutes itself at the cutting edge in African historiography. Designed around the highly successful exhibition that toured Namibia, South Africa, and the United States, The Colonising Camera brings together a mass of previously unseen images and places them in an anthropological, cultural, political, and historical context. Paperback: 227 pages Publisher: Ohio University Press (January 15, 1999) Language: English ISBN-10: 0821412612 ISBN-13: 978-0821412619
