Visual media had a decisive impact on how the past was perceived in historicist culture in nineteenth-century Germany. The panorama, photography, and book illustrations can portray the past under the auspices of spatiality. Research on historicist culture often neglects this dimension of space and concentrates on traditional historicist paradigms, such as temporality, narrative, and teleology. By investigating the visual vocabulary of different historicist genres (academic historiography, illustrated history books, historical maps), this volume expands an understanding of German historicist culture as a multi-medial phenomenon, and shows that past is conveyed in spatial forms, such as travel locations, national and colonial spaces, as well as geographical areas. Tracing these concepts of historical space, this volume demonstrates that the image works as a powerful tool to propagate the ideology of German imperialism in the nineteenth-century, but also can critically reflect the political agendas of national historicism.

This visionary and thoroughly accessible book examines how digital environments and virtual reality have altered the ways historians think and communicate ideas and how the new language of visualization transforms our understanding of the past. Drawing on familiar graphic models--maps, flow charts, museum displays, films--the author shows how images can often convey ideas and information more efficiently and accurately than words.

This volume collects both presentations made on the occasion of a panel organized at the North American Theoretical Archaeological Group, held at the University of Buffalo in 2012, and other invited contributions on the same subject. The papers present the diverse attitudes of archaeologists and art historians in dealing with the visualization of the ancient Near Eastern architectural and material reality. The contributions aim at analysing how ancient architectures and urban space have been recovered and excavated, how the results of those excavations have been presented and their reception in the visual arts. Taking into consideration the way the ancient architecture has been represented through old and new media-thus starting from the most ancient examples of drawings up to the most recent computer-based graphics and creations-it is reasonably time to ask how we want to represent the past and, as a consequence, why we want it that way or another. The analyses in the book also point to the recent debate on the nature and use of 3D reconstructions and virtual reality with the creation of new models and informatics devices: does new technology solve the problems of interpreting and visualizing the archaeological evidences? Beyond technical and aesthetic differences, essays show how archaeologists are still dealing with the same set of problems in projecting a reconstruction of what is either badly preserved or irremediably lost.

Although there are several works on the Hindu iconography, art and culture of India in general and Andhra in particular, still there is a growing need and scope for making further research on the subject in view of the existence of vast untapped art historical resources as well as to offer either new interpretations or to present the historiographical critique on the earlier studies. The book includes twenty five research papers that focus on rediscovering the past through the study of icons, sculptures, mural paintings, epigraphs and material remains of the past. Through systematic and intensive field research the author has cast light on previously unknown information about some monuments and paintings. The volume reveals the complexity of Hindu religion and its mythology, the attitudes of the devotees and the way in which it has resulted in creating the new types of icons of the Hindu gods. The studies on the images included in the volume demonstrate that the image works not only as a powerful tool to propagate the religious ideas but also can critically reflect the socio-religious changes in course of historical processes in South India. It also throws a welcome light on the mural paintings of Srirangam with Telugu labels and on the context and meaning of the episodes. The book explores new insights into the past such as interests of the royalty in duel fights, the types of gardens and the crops grown in medieval Andhra, a rare sculpture of Karaikkal Ammaiyar in Andhra and the socio-religious significance attached to the number Eight. As a picture has tremendous power and is worth a thousand words in visualizing the past, the book is copiously provided with several line drawings and photographs to substantiate the theory and arguments discussed in the work.

Anthropology, History, and Education, first published in 2007, contains all of Kant's major writings on human nature. Some of these works, which were published over a thirty-nine year period between 1764 and 1803, had never before been translated into English. Kant's question 'What is the human being?' is approached indirectly in his famous works on metaphysics, epistemology, moral and legal philosophy, aesthetics and the philosophy of religion, but it is approached directly in his extensive but less well-known writings on physical and cultural anthropology, the philosophy of history, and education which are gathered in the present volume. Kant repeatedly claimed that the question 'What is the human being?' should be philosophy's most fundamental concern, and Anthropology, History, and Education can be seen as effectively presenting his philosophy as a whole in a popular guise.
