Item Number: 134436 Title: The Miracle of Analogy or The History of Photography, Part 1 Author: Silverman, Kaja Price: Not Available ISBN: 9780804793278 Description: Stanford: Stanford University Press, 2015. 24cm., hardcover, 240pp. illus. Summary: The Miracle of Analogy is the first of a two-volume reconceptualization of photography. It argues that photography originates in what is seen, rather than in the human eye or the camera lens, and that it is the world's primary way of revealing itself to us. Neither an index, representation, nor copy, as conventional studies would have it, the photographic image is an analogy. This principle obtains at every level of its being: a photograph analogizes its referent, the negative from which it is generated, every other print that is struck from that negative, and all of its digital "offspring".
