The Politics of Pictures: The Creation of the Public in the Age of Popular Media

Voorkant
Psychology Press, 1992 - 240 pagina's
The Politics of Pictures is a history of looking, from Aristotle to TV audiences, from the invention of photography to the meaning of picnics, from Leviathan to synchronized swimming, Dr. Johnson to the sexualization of war. Its unconventional approach is designed to show how popular reality looks to itself, and how its peculiar forms and connections actually challenge some venerable political and philosophical truths.
