Download or read book 150 Years of Photography in Spain written by Publio López Mondéjar and published by Lunwerg Editores. This book was released on 2000 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mondéjar's work is a companion to an exhibit of the same name that opened at the C!rculo de Bellas Artes in Madrid in December 1999 and is still on tour in Europe and the United States. This single-volume history is the culmination of editor/curator Mondéjar's multivolume study of photography and Spanish society. As with Mexican Suite, this work starts with the beginnings of photography in Europe and its rapid spread and influence, covered in Part 1 (1839-1900). Part 2 (1900-39) shows more signs of political influence, and Part 3 encompasses everything from the war years through the Documentary Revival of the 1960s, to abstracts and nudes in the 1990s. Again, the images are well chosen, spanning portraits of the wealthy and records of the harsh conditions of laborers; biblical images, such as an erotic Salome, and stylized saints; and landscapes, fashion shots, and grisly scenes from the Spanish Civil War.

Download or read book I Die with My Country written by Hendrik Kraay and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Paraguayan War (1864?70) was the most extensive and profound interstate war ever fought in South America. It directly involved the four countries of Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, and Paraguay and took the lives of hundreds of thousands, combatants and noncombatants alike. While the war still stirs emotions on the southern continent, until today few scholars from outside the region have taken on the daunting task of analyzing the conflict. In this compilation of ten essays, historians from Canada, the United States, Germany, Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay address its many tragic complexities. Each scholar examines a particular facet of the war, including military mobilization, home-front activities, the war?s effects on political culture, war photography, draft resistance, race issues, state formation, and the role of women in the war. The editors? introduction provides a balance to the many perspectives collected here while simultaneously integrating them into a comprehensible whole, thus making the book a compelling read for social historians and military buffs alike.

Download or read book Photographic Elicitation and Narration in Teachers Education and Development written by Antonio Bautista García-Vera and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-23 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book discusses the functionality of the use of the language of photography in teachers' initial and ongoing training. It analyzes the nature of photography as a representation system, facilitating inquiry and reflection on its practice for teachers and evocating on theories and beliefs that may guide their work in classrooms. Photography is used to represent symbolically and affectively possible contradictions in teaching activities or the inconsistencies between planned teaching tasks and the educational purposes pursued. Resolving these conflicts is one of the ways to promote professional development. This book also describes photo-elicitation and photographic storytelling as work procedures. By analyzing the contributions of these techniques, the development of teachers is improved.
