Abstract
The recent collection of essays edited by Christopher Webster, Photography in the Third Reich: Art, Physiognomy and Propaganda (2021), consists of an impressive body of scholarship—fresh, original and endlessly interesting. The six or seven essays (depending on the category to which Pepper Stetler’s contribution belongs)—by Rolf Sachsee, Christopher Webster, Andrés Mario Zervigón, Ulrich Hägele and Amos Morris-Reich—are substantial, replete with rare reproductions, and remarkably readable. The foreword provided by Eric Kurlander is rich and incisive. Moreover, Kurlander offers an essential admonition to those who would cling to the archaic notion of Nazi aesthetics as incompatible with classical modernism:
期刊介绍:
Patterns of Prejudice provides a forum for exploring the historical roots and contemporary varieties of social exclusion and the demonization or stigmatisation of the Other. It probes the language and construction of "race", nation, colour, and ethnicity, as well as the linkages between these categories. It encourages discussion of issues at the top of the public policy agenda, such as asylum, immigration, hate crimes and citizenship. As none of these issues are confined to any one region, Patterns of Prejudice maintains a global optic, at the same time as scrutinizing intensely the history and development of intolerance and chauvinism in the United States and Europe, both East and West.
