{"product_id":"photography-and-war-pippa-oldfield-9781789141450","title":"Photography and War","description":"There are countless books on war photography, most of them focusing on dramatic images made by photojournalists in combat zones. \u003ci\u003ePhotography and War\u003c\/i\u003e instead proposes a radically expanded notion of war photography, one that encompasses a far broader terrain of geographies, chronologies, practices, and viewpoints. Pippa Oldfied considers photography's fundamental role in military reconnaissance, propaganda, and protest, as well as the exposure of war crimes and the memorialization of war, among other themes. While iconic images by well-known names such as Roger Fenton and Robert Capa are included, the viewpoints of people who have historically been overlooked--women and photographers from diasporic and non-Western backgrounds--are significantly gathered here. As a result, this book offers a nuanced and more inclusive understanding of war as a far-reaching undertaking in which anyone might be implicated and affected. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Richly illustrated, with some photos published for the first time, \u003ci\u003ePhotography and War\u003c\/i\u003e offers an accessible and well-rounded introduction to photography's perhaps most contested, complex, and emotive subject.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Pippa Oldfield\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1789141451\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781789141450\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Reaktion Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/15\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 7.40w x 0.80d","brand":"Pippa Oldfield","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43938805809407,"sku":"9781789141450","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_33740d54-adca-4590-83ef-bf233643d943.jpg?v=1681437810","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/photography-and-war-pippa-oldfield-9781789141450","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
