V magistrskem delu obravnavam podajanje informacij o zgodovini s pomočjo ilustracije. Cilj je sodobnemu bralcu predstaviti zgodovinsko temo z ilustracijo, ki v vizualnem jeziku posnema značilnosti obravnavanega obdobja. Ukvarjam se s predstavitvijo obrambne arhitekture iz obdobja na prehodu iz srednjega v zgodnji novi vek. Za ta namen sem napisal vsebino, izdelal ilustracije, oblikoval in izdelal knjigo, ki po vseh značilnostih spominja na tiskane knjige iz zgodnjega 16. stoletja. Pri tem sem raziskal vse stopnje izdelovanja knjig v tem obdobju, jih teoretično opisal in znanje uporabil pri končnem izdelku. Za namen predstavitve ponaredka knjige, ki utegne biti potencialnemu bralcu na prvi pogled nerazumljiva, sem oblikoval še posebno publikacijo. Knjižica v obliki kataloga razloži pomen in vsebino ponaredka ter ga s tem postavi v pravi kontekst in približa bralcu. Pri pisanju vsebine kataloga sem si pomagal z nekaterimi ugotovitvami socialne psihologije, za vzor pri oblikovanju pa sem raziskal, kaj so skupne značilnosti različnih poljudnoznanstvenih in znanstvenih publikacij. Kot končni izdelek sta torej nastali dve knjigi. Obe se ukvarjata s problemom prepričevanja s pomočjo posnemanja tipičnih primerov iz izbranega področja. Z vsebino končnega izdelka želim pri bralcu vzbuditi dvom o poznavanju zgodovine in ga s tem vzpodbuditi k raziskovanju, poizvedovanju in preverjanju, posledično pa k učenju.

Abstract

In my master's thesis I discuss the conveying of information about history with the help of illustration. The goal is to present the historical theme to the reader using a type of illustration that imitates the characteristics of the chosen era. I want to present defensive architecture from the period of transition between middle and early modern ages. For this purpose I wrote the contents, made illustrations, designed and crafted a book that in all characteristics mimics printed books of the early 16th century. While doing this I researched all phases of making books, described them theoretically and used that knowledge to make a final product. For the purpose of presenting the fake book, which may be unintelligible to a potential reader, I made a special publication. A small book in form of a catalogue presents the contents, explains its meaning, and places the forged book in context, thus bringing it closer to the reader. While writing the contents of the catalogue I used some findings of social psychology, and while designig it, I studied the common characteristics of different scientific and popular scientific publications. As a final product I made two books, both of them dealing with the problem of persuasion by imitating the typical samples from the desired field. With the final products' contents I wish to cast doubt on readers' knowledge of history and thus encourage them to explore, research and investigate, learning by inference.
