| book description |

The millions of images that were taken pose important questions: How were colonial soldiers framed and photographed in wartime Europe, and Europeans in wartime colonies; and what languages did the 'eye' draw upon while capturing these men? These photographs â€“ even when taken by Europeans â€“ also break the silence around the colonial soldiers, who were often non-literate and did not leave behind many written records. Including a substantial introduction, a critical theoretical foreword from one of the leading experts in the field, and accompanied by 50 rare archival images, the essays in this volume showcase, analyse and interrogate these images, and in so doing challenge and reflect on the distinction between 'war photography' and 'colonial photography'. Colonialism and Photography in the Era of the Great War offers a fresh and vivid understanding of the role of photography in representing the First World War as a multi-racial and global conflict, and it highlights the importance of the First World War as a turning point in European visual culture.
