"What is 'taken' with the photograph? What remains? In these essays a series of iconic documentary images are the focus of interdisciplinary enquiry that responds to one of the central issues for scholarly work in the humanities today: the power of visual representations, their haunting effects, and their capacity to perform small acts of cultural translation that challenge what we see and know of others and ourselves."--Gillian Whitlock, Author ofSoft Weapons: Autobiography in Transit, "The collection is a compelling exploration of the ambiguities, distortions, and shifts in photographic interpretation and meaning."- Archivaria "What is 'taken' with the photograph?

Synopsis
Photographs have shaped public perception and social meaning for the last one hundred and fifty years or more. This collection reexamines photographs and their social history, exploring the ideological, ethical, political, and aesthetic forces that inflect interpretation. The authors here trace shifting historical contexts, intentional or accidental interpretive distortions, and ambiguous and multiple meanings. Collectively, they seek to know how images can be believed, given our awareness of the uncertainty of meaning. The contributors in this collection believe the histories they convey are the stories of our lives. To know the photographs is to know ourselves - with all our ambiguities, distortions, and complexities on display.
