Hardcover. Etat : As New. Etat de la jaquette : As New. 1st Edition. First edition hardcover of Susan Meiselas' 1997 ethnographic photography book "Kurdistan: In the Shadow of History" in fine condition. Mild wear --- "In the present work I've tried to re-create the Kurds' encounter with the West and ask readers to engage in the discovery of a people from a distant place without knowing exactly where that process will lead. In no way is this a definitive history of the Kurds. Texts and images are presented as fragments, to expose the inherent partiality of our knowledge. This is a book of quotations, with multiple and interwoven narratives taken from primary sources -- the raw materials from which history is constructed." - S.M. from "Kurdistan: In the Shadow of History".

Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. 1st Edition. MEISELAS, SUSAN: Kurdistan: In the Shadow of History with Chapter Commentaries by Martin van Bruinessen Random House 1997 hardcover First Edition ISBN 0679423893 First Edition Second printing FINE, very clean and bright, no marks, no writing, not remaindered, in FINE dust jacket, very minimal of wear to a few dust jacket edges, now protected in archival mylar. A large, heavy book, 340 pages. Additional postage required for expedited and international sales. Without a secure homeland, the Kurds have been unable to establish a national archive. Photographs and documents that record their history have been either obliterated or dispersed around the world. In "Kurdistan.: In the Shadow of History," Susan Meiselas has gathered an array of historic material, giving form to a collective memory and creating a vital archive from scattered fragments. Meiselas assembles images from Western sources and from the trunks and personal albums of Kurdish families. Oral histories, declassified government documents, newspaper clippings, and memoirs detail the West's encounters with the Kurds over the last century, through the perspective of travelers, missionaries, anthropologists, colonial administrators, and journalists, as well as the Kurds themselves. The result is an extraordinary sourcebook in which multiple voices offer varied interpretations of the history that the West has shared with the Kurds. In its layering of narratives- both textual and photographic-"Kurdistan: In the Shadow of History" breaks new ground, expanding our understanding of how images can be used as a medium for historical and cultural representation.
