The book is based on long-term empirical research in Russian archives and includes 57 photographs that are exceptional in terms of historical interest: all these images bear traces of editing in the form of various marks, such as blacking-out, excisions or scratches. The illustrative materials also include a group of photographs with inscriptions left by officers of Stalin's secret police, the NKVD. To approach this extensive visual material, Denis Skopin draws on a wealth of Stalin-era written sources: memoirs, diaries and official documents. He argues that this kind of political iconoclasm cannot be confused with censorship nor vandalism. The practice in question is more harrowing and morally twisted, for in most cases the photos were defaced by those who were part of the victim's intimate circle: his/her colleagues, friends, or even close family members. The book will be of interest to scholars working in history of photography, art history, visual culture, Russian studies, and Russian history and politics"-- |cProvided by publisher. 650 0 Photography |zSoviet Union |xHistory. 650 0 Photography of families |xPolitical aspects |zSoviet Union. 650 0 Portrait photography |xPolitical aspects |zSoviet Union. 650 0 Photography |xRetouching |zSoviet Union. 650 0 Photographs |xCensorship |zSoviet Union. 650 0 Photographs |xForgeries |zSoviet Union. 650 0 Political persecution |zSoviet Union. 650 0 Missing persons |zSoviet Union. 650 7 Missing persons. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01023702 650 7 Photographs |xCensorship. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01061687 650 7 Photographs |xForgeries. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01061695 650 7 Photography. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01061714 650 7 Photography |xRetouching. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01061819 650 7 Political persecution. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01069448 651 7 Soviet Union. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01210281 655 7 History. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 |iOnline version:Skopin, Denis. |tPhotography and political repressions in Stalin's Russia |dNew York, NY : Routledge, 2022 |z9781003184744 |w(DLC) 2021045574 830 0 Routledge history of photography 902 010002796 |wcopy |120221128091810.0 910 |cF1303mon |d3110-99 914 (OCoLC)on1268360645 |bOCoLC |cmatch |d20240530 |eprocessed |f1268360645 960 |o1 |zUSD 961 |fTFK |m311099 |nCloth 980 17638261 |i150.00 982 |crcppa 984 20220726 |b164528
