Workshop
description:
This workshop
on the teaching
of criticsm
engages three
parallel sets
of issues:
(a) teaching
students to
think and
write critically;
(b) teaching
the history
of criticism
of photography
(for this
we'll use
examples of
important
writings about
photography
by Emerson,
Moholy-Nagy,
myself, and
several others,
discussing
the pedagogical
issues involved
in contextualizing
these with
students);
(c) understanding
the relationship
between hermeneutics
and exegetics,
between theory
and practice,
and other
dialectical
issues.
