This is a visual history of role stereotypes in geography textbooks from 1880 to 1910. Social meaning of visual role stereotypes were investigated involving men and women, children, work and race representations. 1880 to 1910 covered the confluence of engraving and introduction of the photomechanical reproduction process. The period is all the more important because textbook pictures flourished in the 19th century, especially in visually oriented geography texts.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This is a visual history of role stereotypes in geography textbooks from 1880 to 1910. Social meaning of visual role stereotypes were investigated involving men and women, children, work and race representations. 1880 to 1910 covered the confluence of engraving and introduction of the photomechanical reproduction process. The period is all the more important because textbook pictures flourished in the 19th century, especially in visually oriented geography texts.
520 $a The Walter Havighurst Special Collections' Nineteenth Century Schoolbook Collection (Miami University, Ohio) and the John Nietz Old Textbook Collection (Pittsburgh) were sources of data for this study. Two research designs were engendered of which the second study (Premise Testing--for stereotypical differences) builds on the first (Pilot Study--for discovery of stereotypical trends). A sample of textbooks from each collection was randomly chosen and over 200 pictures were detailed from those texts. Each picture is shown the exact size as it appeared in text with copious ambient material included.
520 $a Guided by representational positions of Erving Goffman, Paul Von Blum, David Perlmutter and John Berger, the pictures were examined for content, coded onto a standardized form and analyzed for their contribution to building a "social-meaning" paradigm creating role stereotypes. Although meant to be primarily visual, the study extensively discusses reciprocal ontological tension between engraving and photography. This argument is similar to, but goes beyond ideas developed by Susan Sonntag and Pierre Bourdieu. On a more subtle level, it articulates how this tension contributes to elaborate building of a specific worldview transmitted through textbook representations.
520 $a Whereas American culture changed dramatically from 1880 to 1910, geography textbook stereotypes did not. Additionally, it was suggested these stereotypes were seminal indications of subsequent late 20th century American social problems involving sex, racial and elitist distinctions. Implications of these findings were speculated on concerning the future of textbook pictures along with suggestions for further investigations. Specially selected color slides complement the investigation offering a dialectical visual exhibit narrated by the author. Tapes of the presentation are also available on request.
