The Camera as Actor: Photography and the Embodiment of Technology (Routledge History of Photography) - Softcover
Book 10 of 20: Routledge History of Photography
Synopsis
Looking beyond the impact photographs have on the perpetuation and expression of social norms and stereotypes, and the influence of the act of taking a photograph, this new collection brings together international scholars to examine the camera itself as an actor.
Bringing the camera back into view, this volume furthers our understanding of how, and in what ways, imaging technology shapes us, our lives, and the representations out of which we fashion knowledge, base our judgments and ultimately act. Through a broad range of case studies, the authors in this collection make the convincing claim that the camera is much more than a mechanical device brought to life by the photographer.
This book will be of interest to scholars in photography, visual culture, anthropology and the history of photography.
