| Summary: | This paper outlines the historical development and methodical challenges
of digital visual studies. Although it was argued early on that the
strength of the computer lay in formal rather than iconographic
analysis, in practice the iconographic encoding of images and the
collection of metadata dominated for a long time. However, scholars and
practitioners of digital visual studies soon demanded a thorough
›Ideologiekritik‹ (›critique of ideology‹) of its methods. Today, the
field encompasses a broad spectrum of formal and iconographical, as well
as reception-based studies. Furthermore, it can help to establish the
critical reflection on methodical implications as a core issue for the
digital humanities. |
