| Zusammenfassung: | Explores the entwined histories of iconic photographs and filmReviews the lives of seven legendary photographs through the lens of cinema, expanding understanding of these interlocking mediaPresents new archival research into and close analysis of the double lives of four of these photographs as pieces of footage, enhancing knowledge of some of film history's most haunting momentsProposes the icon as a novel paradigm for thinking about the confluence of still and moving images and their relationship to historyExplores developments in technology and aesthetics that shaped the iconic image, enriching appreciation of its historical emergenceThe first detailed study of what filmic images can tell us about iconic photographs, No Power Without an Image reveals the multifaceted connections between seven celebrated photographs of political struggles, taken between 1936 and 1968, and cinema in all its forms. Moving from the 'paper cinema' of magazines via newsreels and film journals, to documentary, fiction and experimental films, this fascinating book draws on original archival research and multidisciplinary icon theory to explore new ways of thinking about the confluence of still and moving images |
