艾可直播

Images enrich and stimulate scholarly work in the humanities, and the study of Latin America is accompanied by a 辫补谤迟颈肠耻濒补谤濒测听rich imagery of the region and its peoples. Drawings, paintings, photographs, as well as mediums such as postage stamps, compellingly convey nuanced stories about the region and its cultural, political, social, and physical past and present. We estimate that hundreds of thousands of such visuals are held among Latin 艾可直播ist scholars in personal collections, often in fragile or obsolete formats such as slides and print photos.

CLALS collaborates with AU's Bender Library and the Department of World Languages and Cultures to curate the . Launched in May 2013, the Archive is housed in a searchable, open-access database. It aims to gather and digitize visual collections, and make them freely available to students, teachers, and researchers. This project was originally spearheaded by AU professor Jack Child (1938-2011) and is dedicated to his memory.

This initiative has the potential to augment student engagement with Latin 艾可直播 by enabling instructors to incorporate visuals into classroom activities and presentations. Products of this project can also enhance the visibility of Latin 艾可直播 studies, providing high quality images for book illustrations, websites, journal covers, and various other uses.

The initial collection was donated by Jack Child and contains 4,000 of Child's slides, which have now been digitized.

In July 2015, CLALS opened our first online, curated photo exhibit, titled "Exploring Cuba." The exhibit features photos donated by twelve scholars and students, and is divided into nine thematic categories, including Architecture, Cars and Transportation, Propaganda, Agriculture and Rural Life, People, and Culture, among others. We hope that this resource will be useful to authors, educators, web designers, and others engaged in analyses of contemporary Cuban affairs.
