Wars have always been connected to images. From the representation
of war on maps, panoramas, and paintings to the modern visual media
of photography, film, and digital screens, images have played a
central role in representing combat, military strategy, soldiers,
and victims. Such images evoke a whole range of often unexpected
emotions from ironic distance to boredom and disappointment. Why is
that? This book examines the emotional language of war images, how
they entwine with various visual technologies, and how they can
build emotional communities. The book engages in a
cross-disciplinary dialogue between visual studies, literary
studies, and media studies by discussing the links between images,
emotions, technology, and community. From these different
perspectives, the book provides a comprehensive overview of the
nature and workings of war images from 1800 until today, and it
offers a frame for thinking about the meaning of the images in
contemporary wars.
