Marietta Kesting argues for a way of embodied seeing and complements this with feminist and queer film studies, history of photography, media theory, and cultural studies. Featuring in-depth discussions of photographs, films, and other visual documents, Kesting then situates them in broader historical contexts, such as cultural history and the history of black subjectivity and revolves the images around the intersection of race and gender. In its interdisciplinary approach, this book explores the recurrence of affective images of the past in a different way, including flashbacks, trauma, "white noise," and the return of the repressed. It draws its materials from photographers, filmmakers, and artists such as Ernest Cole, Simphiwe Nkwali, Terry Kurgan, Thenjiwe Niki Nkosi, Adze Ugah, and the Center for Historical Reenactments. 2022-03-19T05:31:59Z 2022-03-19T05:31:59Z 2017 book 9781438467863 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/53480 eng SUNY Press Open Access application/epub+zip n/a external_content.epub State University of New York Press SUNY Press 10.1353/book.100024 6361 10.1353/book.100024 1e003940-c9f9-4f5d-b1a0-1cfa16a3eae7 b818ba9d-2dd9-4fd7-a364-7f305aef7ee9 9781438467863 Knowledge Unlatched (KU) SUNY Press 292 Knowledge Unlatched open access
