Abstract

Contributors to this volume address the issue of the representation of warfare, in an attempt to assess the veracity or mendacity of war images and their probable impact upon the sequence of events. War images may trigger unfathomable horror or conversely and paradoxically attain sublimity. The margin is sometimes narrow between ethics and aesthetics, let alone the almost irrepressible shift from information to propaganda.

Abstract

Unter dem Einsatz ihres Lebens stellen Fotografen und zunehmend Fotografinnen weiterhin weltweit Bilder von Kriegen her. Digitalisierung und Informationsrevolution verändern deren Bedeutung und Funktion grundlegend. In der dreitausendjährigen Geschichte der Kriegsbilder hat die Fotografie zu einem tiefen Einschnitt geführt. Nach zaghaften Anfängen im 19. Jahrhundert entwickelte sich im Ersten Weltkrieg eine professionelle Fotografie, die mit Problemen der Darstellbarkeit des technologischen Kriegs kämpfte, sowie die Massenfotografie der Amateure. Ein Jahrzehnt später bildete sich im Rahmen des öffentlichen Mediendiskurses der Fotojournalismus, der die Kriegsfotografie im engeren Sinn ausbildete. Seit dem Spanischen Bürgerkrieg kombinierte sie die Absicht der Dokumentation mit einem humanistischen Engagement. Ihre Fotos prägen das Kriegsbild bis in die Gegenwart. Der radikal veränderte Bildermarkt des digitalen Zeitalters führt zum Ende der Kriegsfotografie und zu einem neuen Kriegsbild. In seinem Essay zieht Bernd Hüppauf die Summe aus über 20 Jahren Auseinandersetzung mit Kriegsfotografie.

Abstract

Lens of War grew out of an invitation to leading historians of the Civil War to select and reflect upon a single photograph. Each could choose any image and interpret it in personal and scholarly terms. The result is a remarkable set of essays by twenty-seven scholars whose numerous volumes on the Civil War have explored military, cultural, political, African American, women's, and environmental history. The essays describe a wide array of photographs and present an eclectic approach to the assignment, organized by topic: Leaders, Soldiers, Civilians, Victims, and Places. Readers will rediscov

Abstract

"As an Official Army Photographer, "Mac" Fleming's assignment was to take motion pictures of significant wartime events for the U.S. Army. In the first-aid kit on his belt, he also carried a small personal camera, which he used to take pictures of the people and places that interested him, capturing in his field notes details of the life he observed. From these records, Fleming has assembled this absorbing private chronicle of war and peace. Assigned to the European Theater in February 1945, he filmed the action from the battle for the Remagen Bridge across the Rhine, to the fighting in the Hartz Mountains, on to the linkup with the Russian forces at the Elbe River. After the armistice, Fleming helped document how the Allied Expeditionary Force established a military government in Germany to cope with masses of POWs, establish control of the country, deal with the atrocities committed by the German army, and help thousands of newly released slave laborers return home to Poland, France, and Russia. He also recorded how the army provided rest, recreation, and rehabilitation to the remaining U.S. soldiers and sent them home by truck, train, and ship. Awaiting shipment home, Fleming explored postwar German town and country life and toured some famous castles and historic spots. The foreword by historian James H. Madison describes the important role of photography in war and the special contribution of Fleming's photographic diary"--
