Over past week, as I reworked a syllabus for a course on
Photography and Literature, I spent some time skimming through the online
finding aids and databases that catalog the Harry Ransom Humanities Research
Center. The Stereograph collection
at the HRC seems particularly fascinating—it contains over 4,000 images, most
of which date to the period between 1870 and 1900. Introducing students to stereographs can form a jumping off
point for considering the intersections of vision, modernity, science and technology,
early photography, and tourism.
