Susan Sontag's 1997 text, On Photography, brought photographic
theory into the university classroom with its staunch defence of
the medium as art and inspired a new wave of Marxist Criticism in
the field. Sontag explains the way in which we are addicted to
images and depend on them for knowledge of our surroundings and the
problems and challenges this causes. Already an established
academic figure, Sontag brought Walter Benjamin's theories in into
the academic mainstream. The book retains its relevance in the
everyday world because of the applicability of its ideas to the
world of digital photography.
