The nature of photographs or photography has entered our common
language to the extent that we find ourselves speaking easily of
photographic memories or photographic likenesses. We have theatre that
titles itself, "I, camera". We even say that the camera cannot lie; an
oxymoron worthy of Orwell himself. It is therefore both timely and
important that we turn our attention to the philosophical ideas and
constructs that underlie the nature of photography; what it is and is
not; what it can be and cannot; how it is used and how it should not;
how it is understood and misunderstood. This collection of essays
edited by Scott Walden represents both a broad sweep of the major
perspectives of the debate that is accessible to the generalist
interested reader, and a degree of seminal scholarly work that will
enlighten the student and refresh the informed. Link:
