Description
Outside of Ireland, ideas of Irish photography center around
picturesque tourist views of the emerald green of the Irish landscape
and photojournalistic representations of The Troubles. Justin Carville
sets out in Photography and Ireland to change this perception, to
give attention instead to depictions of its social transformations,
political upheavals, and geographical reimaginings as a colony, nation,
province, and sovereign state.
picturesque tourist views of the emerald green of the Irish landscape
and photojournalistic representations of The Troubles. Justin Carville
sets out in Photography and Ireland to change this perception, to
give attention instead to depictions of its social transformations,
political upheavals, and geographical reimaginings as a colony, nation,
province, and sovereign state.
As Carville demonstrates, photography not only has documented these
transformations but has also helped shape how Ireland is viewed, both
by itself and the rest of the world. Photography and Ireland explores
the role of the photographic image in the colonial and postcolonial
visual cultures of Ireland from the nineteenth century to the present
day, and it emphasizes the transnational dimension of photography in
Ireland, including foreign photographers who have contributed their
images to the cultural imagination.

Accessibly written and accompanied by a wealth of images, including
commercial portraits and landscapes, ethnographic photography,
photojournalism, and documentary works, Photography and Ireland explores the formation of an indigenous photographic culture in Ireland through a number of interrelated themes.
