ISBN: 9781845115012 / Angielski / Twarda / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In life 'after postmodernism', photography, cinema, television and the internet have all already changed the way we think about pictures. In this book, David Bate opens up a new vista for the discussion of photography. He offers fresh ways of approaching photography, showing how photographs circulate in an 'image world' that exists beyond their art and media origins. He argues that these images permeate people's minds as much as the environment and that photography has affected our sense of time and its relationship to memory. Moving beyond the melancholic realism of Roland Barthes' "Camera...

ISBN: 9780415722902 / Angielski / Miękka / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Recent decades have seen a flourishing interest in and speculation about the origins of photography.

Photography and Its Origins reflects on this interest in photography's beginnings by reframing it in critical and specifically historiographical terms. How and why do we write about the origins of the medium? Whom or what do we rely on to construct those narratives? What's at stake in choosing to tell stories of...
