Foster HalVision and visuality.Seattle [Wash.] : Bay Press, 1988, 1 vol. (XIII-135 p.).Collection Discussions in contemporary culture ; 2.ISBN 978-1-56584-461-2Résumé : Why vision and visuality, why these terms ? Although vision suggests sight as a physical operation, and visulity sight as a social fact, the two are not opposed as nature to culture : vision is social and historical too, and visuality involves the body and the psyche. Yet neither are they identical : here, the difference between the terms signals a difference within the visual - between the mechanism of sight and its historical techniques, between the datum of vision and its discursive determinations - a difference, many differences, among how we see, how we are able, allowed, or made to see, and how we see this seeing or the unseen therein. With its own rhetoric and representations, each scopic regime seeks to close out these differences : to make of its many social visualities one essential vision, or to order them in a natural hierarchy of sight.Contents :- Hal Foster, Preface- Martin Jay, Scopic regimes of modernity- Jonathan Crary, Modernizing vision- Rosalind Krauss, The im/pulse to see- Norman Bryson, The gaze in the expanded field- Jacqueline Rose, Sexuality and vision : some questionsAxe de recherches :Axe transversal : Cultures visuelles
