Book excerpt: While the crisis that took place in photojournalism during the 1960's brought about a significant shift in the practices, discourses and institutional structures of press photography, it also affected the practices of artists, specifically with regard to work devoted to revitalizing the depiction of events. The art world attempted to revitalize the historical genre by undertaking its critical rereading, in the spirit of restoring a tradition diminished by the mass media. The problem may be expressed in these terms: How can history be depicted, bearing in mind that the media (mainly photojournalism and the electronic press) have claimed a monopoly of the genre unto themselves? At issue is the sizeable problem of mass media omnipotence as an obligatory referential universe for historiographical artistic practices. Today, it seems impossible to depict the event in any way other than by accentuating or eschewing the formal attributes, rhetorical artifices, and ideological precepts of the mass media. These approaches to addressing historical moments have been examined in this article both because they epitomize contemporary historical writing and, for the most part, they constitute critical responses to stereotyped depictions of events. Above all, they represent a paradigm shift: the mass media's prerogatives for depicting historical moments has shifted towards the field of art. Contemporary depictions of catastrophe - crimes, sensationalist news items, terrorist attacks, humanitarian disasters, genocides - (common themes in many of the artistic projects represented in the 8th edition of the Mois de la Photo a Montreal} have been especially striking in this respect. For of all contemporary events, catastrophes are the most likely to be spontaneously propelled to the top of the news - roster and the most susceptible to the various inflections of contemporary art photography.

Download or read book Living ShUM Monuments written by Marques Vickers and published by Marquis Publishing. This book was released on 2020-02-15 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Living ShUM Monuments” is a pictorial edition documenting the most prominent remaining and newly constructed memorials of the region’s present day Jewish heritage in central Germany. The text is written in both English and French languages. Originating from the tenth century, the middle Rhine River cities of Mainz, Worms and Speyer would establish some of the earliest Jewish colonies documented in Central and Eastern Europe. The three communities created a unique cultural cluster that influenced the religion, architecture, scholarship and administrative justice of the era, the Ashkenazi Diaspora. The ShUM community name was coined from the initial letters of Speyer, Worms and Mainz in Hebrew. During an ancient assembly in 1223, the legal status was affirmed. Globally Jewish communities and particularly the ShUM have historically endured persecution, dispersal and unfounded blame for historical calamities including the pestilence that decimated Europe during the Middle Ages. They have survived the ravages of mob violence, religious intolerance and grinding ignorance that has pervaded civilization despite eras of educational and artistic enlightenment. Throughout all, notable ShUM monuments have endured. Most have undergone massive renovations and even recreations for the present living. The historical resilience of the ShUM has been coupled by contemporary innovation. Jewish populations were never numerous within the three cities, but a recent period of exodus from Eastern Europe countries since the 1990s has reversed a previous post-World War II population vacancy. The dissolution of communism opened the portals to previously suppressed religious expression. The recently constructed synagogues in Mainz and Speyer rival the most innovative modern clergical architecture proliferating a progressive energy of growth and expansion. The cities of Mainz, Worms and Speyer are once again embracing vibrancy in their economic climates, diversity of cultural expression and recognition internationally. It appears appropriate that the foundations of this renaissance should include one of its important cultural and religious components. The edition details the background, history and showcases in photographic detail the following historical and cultural treasures: German Stolpersteines (The Bronze Pavement Stones Recognizing Holocaust Victims) Worms: Jewish Quarter, Ancient Synagogue and Mikveh (ritual bath) and the Heiliger (Holy Sands) Cemetery Mainz: Light of the Diaspora Synagogue, Synagogue of Weisenau, St. Stephen’s Cathedral and Artist Marc Chagall’s Blue Windows and the ancient Jewish cemetery. Speyer: Jewish Quarter, Mikveh (ritual bath), Ancient Romanesque hall synagogue east wall, Beit Shalom Synagogue and Ancient Jewish Cemetery.

Download or read book Literature and Weather written by Johannes Ungelenk and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2018-02-19 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Literature and Weather. Shakespeare – Goethe – Zola" is dedicated to the relation between literature and weather, i.e. a cultural practice and an everyday phenomenon that has played very different epistemic roles in the history of the world. The study undertakes an archaeology of literature’s affinity to the weather which tells the story of literature’s weathery self-reflection and its creative reinventions as a medium in different epistemic and social circumstances. The book undertakes extensive close readings of three exemplary literary texts: Shakespeare’s The Tempest, Goethe’s The Sufferings of Young Werther and Zola’s The Rougon-Macquarts. These readings provide the basis for reconstructing three distinct formations, negotiating the relationship between literature and weather in the 17th, the 18th and the 19th centuries. The study is a pioneering contribution to the recent debates of literature’s indebtedness to the environment. It initiates a rewriting of literary history that is weather-sensitive; the question of literature’s agency, its power to affect, cannot be raised without understanding the way the weather works in a certain cultural formation.

Download or read book The Cold War written by Konrad H. Jarausch and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-02-06 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The traces of the Cold War are still visible in many places all around the world. It is the topic of exhibits and new museums, of memorial days and historic sites, of documentaries and movies, of arts and culture. There are historical and political controversies, both nationally and internationally, about how the history of the Cold War should be told and taught, how it should be represented and remembered. While much has been written about the political history of the Cold War, the analysis of its memory and representation is just beginning. Bringing together a wide range of scholars, this volume describes and analyzes the cultural history and representation of the Cold War from an international perspective. That innovative approach focuses on master narratives of the Cold War, places of memory, public and private memorialization, popular culture, and schoolbooks. Due to its unique status as a center of Cold War confrontation and competition, Cold War memory in Berlin receives a special emphasis. With the friendly support of the Wilson Center.

Book excerpt: A richly illustrated look at some of the most important photobooks of the 20th century France experienced a golden age of photobook production from the late 1920s through the 1950s. Avant-garde experiments in photography, text, design, and printing, within the context of a growing modernist publishing scene, contributed to an outpouring of brilliantly designed books. Making Strange offers a detailed examination of photobook innovation in France, exploring seminal publications by Brassaï, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Frank, Pierre Jahan, William Klein, and Germaine Krull. Kim Sichel argues that these books both held a mirror to their time and created an unprecedented modernist visual language. Sichel provides an engaging analysis through the lens of materiality, emphasizing the photobook as an object with which the viewer interacts haptically as well as visually. Rich in historical context and beautifully illustrated, Making Strange reasserts the role of French photobooks in the history of modern art.
