Rezensionen

"Caruso's book represents innovative work in the field of visual culture. The richness of the material and the sophistication of the analysis create a remarkable set of new ways of thinking about the photography of the period. - Robert Lumley, Professor of Italian Cultural History, University College London, UK A welcome, imaginative reading of Italian photography that breaks new ground in a consolidated historiography of postwar neorealism and amnesia of the Fascist past. Through the lens of "humanist" photography, Caruso brilliantly situates the complex lineage of Italian photographic culture and proves its dynamic exchange across media and national boundaries. - Professor Maria Antonella Pelizzari, Hunter College and The Graduate Center, The City University of New York, USA"
