The objective is to provide the students with an understanding of the relationship between who produces documents, which media are used, i.e. sound, pictures or text, and the influence of tradition in document production. The aim is that the students should be able to conduct specific detail analyses with both a contemporary and a historical perspective, and make their own points of view the object of critical reflection in a perspective of theory and methodology. | Contents
Course type: Limited optional subject in a course of study in Documentary Science. The subject may be taken by students from other programmes.
Required previous qualifications/courses:
