The need to write an essay on the history and sociology of culture, submitted here to the reader, arose in the fall of 1975 under rather peculiar circumstances. Therefore, despite the considerable lapse of time, I remember them perfectly. The case happened long enough to rethink it and see it from a broader historical perspective. The impetus for similar activities was the university seminar which I taught for a quarter of a century together with prof. GrazynaSzelagowska at the Faculty of History at the University of Warsaw. The seminar, entitled “Film as a historical source” was largely devoted to Polish film and the political and social conditions in which film art operated in the times of the Polish People's Republic (see also: Cegielski and Szelagowska (2011: 5–18).

Kilka uwag o historii wizualnej

75%
PL
Historia wizualna to subdyscyplina historii zajmująca się badaniem przedstawień (audio)wizualnych związanych z przeszłością, o charakterze artystycznym (malarstwo, fotografia, film i in.). Historia wizualna wychodzi z założenia, że obserwowany współcześnie wzrost znaczenia form wizualnych zmusza naukę historyczną do reorientacji. Wskazuje więc na potrzebę wykorzystywania jako źródeł także fotografii czy filmu. Interesuje się też edukacją historyczną i wykorzystaniem wiedzy historycznej w celach popularyzatorskich bądź hobbistycznych, za pomocą środków audiowizualnych. Reorientacja ta inicjuje refleksję zmierzającą do wypracowania teoretycznych i praktycznych rozwiązań.

In the course of its development historiography has faced all kinds of challenges typical of a given stage in the development of civilisation. Visual representations come into the category of such challenges. An incresingly acknowledged subdiscipline of history, visual history sets itself the task of studying all kinds of audiovisual representations of the past, including the artistic ones such as film, photography and art. It is informed by the assumption that the increasing role of audiovisual ways of representing reality, including the past reality, makes it necessary for historiography to modify the fundamental presuppositions on which it is based, without, however, abandoning the traditional goals it is called upon to pursue. Visual history insists on the use of film or photographs as historical sources. This in turn requires the elaboration of specific methods of dealing with such sources, which are so significantly different from those usually made use of by historians. The discipline in question also takes an interest in the use of audiovisual means in historical education and in the popularisation of historical knowledge. History’s shift in the direction of audiovisual media inspires methodological discussions that contribute to the elaboration of both practical and theoretical solutions to a variety of problems this shift creates.
