Abstract
Double Exposure: Memory and Photography emphasises
the importance of photography within the construction
of national memory, collective identities and historical
imagination. The edited collection brings together work
from the disciplines of history, sociology, anthropology
and media studies and includes essays from renowned
scholars in the field, including Jeffrey K. Olick, Martin
Jay, Richard Chalfen, Elizabeth Edwards and José van
Djick, to mention a few. On this basis alone, it is an
important text for those wishing to understand the
relationship between photography and memory and the
various ways that it has been conceptualised by
researchers and intellectuals working in different
disciplinary fields.
