Obseruationibus Illustratae Johann Georg Roederer J. P. Kaltenhofer
sumtibus Vandenhoeckianis, 1759
Early in World War II censors placed all photographs of dead and
badly wounded Americans in a secret Pentagon file known to
officials as the Chamber of Horrors. Later, as government leaders
became concerned about public complacency brought on by Allied
victories, they released some of these photographs of war's
brutality. But to the war's end and after, they continued to censor
photographs of mutilated or emotionally distressed American
soldiers, of racial conflicts at American bases, and other visual
evidence of disunity or disorder. In this book George H. Roeder,
Jr., tells the intriguing story of how American opinions about
World War II were manipulated both by the wartime images that
citizens were allowed to see and by the images that were
suppressed. His text is amplified by arresting visual essays that
include many previously unpublished photographs from the army's
censored files. Examining news photographs, movies, newsreels,
posters, and advertisements, Roeder explores the different ways
that civilian and military leaders used visual imagery to control
the nation's perception of the war and to understate the war's
complexities. He reveals how image makers tried to give minorities
a sense of equal participation in the war while not alarming others
who clung to the traditions of separate races, classes, and gender
roles. He argues that the most pervasive feature of wartime visual
imagery was its polarized depiction of the world as good or bad,
and he discusses individuals-Margaret Bourke-White, Bill Mauldin,
Elmer Davis, and others-who fought against these limitations. He
shows that the polarized ways of viewing encouraged by World War II
influenced American responses to political issues for decades to
follow, particularly in the simplistic way that the Vietnam War was
depicted by both official and antiwar forces.
