The images also have a history!

Book very interesting and innovative in its approach. The author understands the importance in Nazism more than in any other political regime's image of power. Whether it is of course the images of mass graves of the extermination camps or those impeccable shows, there is a real fascination exerted look, and continues after all these years, by Nazism. It wanted himself the dramatization of his regime and its implementation systematically show a Nazi aesthetics we spoke that comes to the cinema or the sculpture. But what Nazism did not anticipate is that this hypnotic power of bewitchment would survive him. Few images have such power, few images fail to capture much attention, create something that looks as much to voyeurism. Which is always a mixture of horror or fright and delight or enjoyment. And this is what the fascination that Nazism continues to exercise, which of course the most trouble. It has something to do with pornography, meaning moral struggle and condemns but the look gives way to the promise of desire. But what desire, what impulse proceeds of Nazism and of course I do not think that saying to those who may live on an ideological plane in the nostalgia of Nazism but to all those for whom it represents well the horror of height but remain eager for his images. Compared to this troubling and disturbing experience, the book C.Deprairies is an essential reflection effort involved a working decryption routine, critical reading of these images of war that the Nazis could offer as snapshots taken on Sightings. Work at political, philosophical and semiotic of great interest, it is simultaneously accessible to a young audience that teachers or parents would like to do as we say in the curriculum: a media education and image!
