By analysing the philosophical lineage of notions of
representation, time, being, light, exposure, image, and truth,
this book argues that photography is the visual manifestation of
the philosophical account of how humans encounter beings in the
present. Daniel Rubinstein argues that traditional understandings
of photography are determined by the notions of verisimilitude and
representation, and this limits our understanding of photographic
materiality. It is suggested that the photographic image must be
closely read not for the objects, events and situations represented
in it, but for the insights it affords into the structure of
contemporary consciousness. The book will be of interest to
scholars working in photography, media studies, philosophy, fine
art, and art history.
