The Role of Visual Imagery in Shaping Collective Memory

This exam focuses on the critical analysis of how visual imagery influences collective memory. It emphasizes the relationship between visual culture and the narratives that society constructs around historical events.

Understanding this relationship is essential for scholars within the Humanities, as it provides insight into cultural identity and social coherence. Visual representations play a pivotal role in how communities remember their pasts and form future aspirations.

Students will articulate their understanding of the theoretical frameworks that link visual culture to collective memory. They are expected to demonstrate their ability to critically analyze visual texts and their societal implications during the assessment.

Participants may also discuss specific case studies to illustrate how visual materials can shape collective experiences and narratives.
