OverviewThis book is the first of its kind to fully explain how to use photographs for research within Practical Theology. An essential tool for anyone exploring how visual material can shed light on their research questions, the book functions as a guide to using the methods well. It includes a rationale for using photographs within the emerging field of empirical work within theology, which is useful for students or others within the academy who need to justify using a visual approach for their research projects and dissertations. Drawing on the author’s own experience of using visual approaches, the book covers a variety of visual methods, including photojournalism, different types of photo elicitation, photo voice and studies of visual social media. Each chapter illustrates the method under discussion via a case study and photographs and contains a practical guide to using the method well and avoiding pitfalls. Additionally, the book explores how photographs can be used to resource theological reflection and spirituality, thus linking research and faithful practice within the rational for using visual material. Designed for the classroom use, each chapter contains: - Chapter summary (learning points) - Background information - ‘how to’ with examples of research projects - Advantages and limitations of the method - Conclusion Full Product DetailsAuthor: Sarah Dunlop (University of Cambridge, UK)Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Imprint: T.& T.Clark Ltd ISBN: 9780567713377ISBN 10: 0567713377 Pages: 144 Publication Date: 22 August 2024 Audience: College/higher education , Tertiary & Higher Education Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In stock  We have confirmation that this item is in stock with the supplier.

Conclusion: New Horizons in Theology Bibliography IndexReviewsSarah Dunlop has provided both practical theologians and ministers an exciting approach for doing theology. Doing Theology with Photographs helps us all think about lived experience and the necessity of theological reflections around it. This book needs to be wrestled with. * Andrew Root, Luther Seminary, USA * Doing Theology with Photographs is an exceptional exploration of visual methodologies. This book not only delves into the intricacies of visual analysis but also seamlessly connects theory with practice, making it an invaluable resource for qualitative research and ministry. In a digital culture heavily characterised by visuals, Doing Theology with Photographs emerges as an indispensable resource, shedding light on the vital role of visual communication within theology. This book is essential for recognising the profound significance of visuals as a communicative medium in theological discourse. In essence, this book invites readers to journey beyond the confines of traditional theological discourse and embrace a more holistic approach to understanding faith and spirituality. By recognising that theology extends beyond listening, reading, and speaking, this book opens new avenues for theological exploration and reflection. * Sabrina Müller, University of Bonn, Germany * Author InformationSarah Dunlop is Lecturer in Practical Theology at Ridley Hall and Affiliated Lecturer in the Faculty of Divinity at the University of Cambridge, UK.
