Most view the relationship of Jews to the Soviet Union through the lens of repression and silence. Focusing on an elite group of two dozen Soviet-Jewish photographers, including Arkady Shaykhet, ...Alexander Grinberg, Mark Markov-Grinberg, Evgenii Khaldei, Dmitrii Baltermants, and Max Alpert,Through Soviet Jewish Eyespresents a different picture. These artists participated in a social project they believed in and with which they were emotionally and intellectually invested-they were charged by the Stalinist state to tell the visual story of the unprecedented horror we now call the Holocaust.These wartime photographers were the first liberators to bear witness with cameras to Nazi atrocities, three years before Americans arrived at Buchenwald and Dachau. In this passionate work, David Shneer tells their stories and highlights their work through their very own images-he has amassed never-before-published photographs from families, collectors, and private archives.Through Soviet Jewish Eyeshelps us understand why so many Jews flocked to Soviet photography; what their lives and work looked like during the rise of Stalinism, during and then after the war; and why Jews were the ones charged with documenting the Soviet experiment and then its near destruction at the hands of the Nazis.
This article aims to situate the location of imagery research according to Pierre Bourdieu's reflexive sociology and anthropology. To this end, we consider the relationship between theory, practice ...and photographic strategies based on the notion of photo-ethnography, taking as support the experiences of this French social scientist in colonial Algeria and the province of Bearn. Navigating between a visual anthropology and the sociology of the image, the study of Pierre Bourdieu's imagery production enables important epistemic reflections on the social constraints of research in contexts of extraordinariness, the issue of the plurality of the researcher's roles, and the importance of the look that, although theoretically trained, one cannot deprive oneself of subjective and objective experiences in the field. In addition to his main works, specialists and commentators of Pierre Bourdieu were used as reference, from which we highlight Wacquant (2006), Yacine (2004), among others. Keywords Pierre Bourdieu, Photo-Ethnography, Anthropology, Sociology O presente artigo visa situar o local da pesquisa imagetica segundo a sociologia e antropologia reflexivas de Pierre Bourdieu. Para tanto, consideramos a relacao entre teoria, pratica e estrategias fotograficas a partir da nocao de fotoetnografia, tomando como suporte as experiencias desse cientista social frances na Argelia colonial e provincia do Bearn. Transitando entre uma antropologia visual e a sociologia da imagem, o estudo da producao imagetica de Pierre Bourdieu possibilita importantes reflexoes epistemicas sobre os condicionantes sociais da pesquisa em contextos de extraordinariedade, a questao da pluralidade dos papeis do pesquisador e a importancia do olhar que, embora teoricamente treinado, nao se pode privar das experiencias subjetivas e objetivas no campo. Alem de suas principais obras, foram utilizados especialistas e comentadores de Pierre Bourdieu, entre os quais destacamos Loic Wacquant, Tassadit Yacine, entre outros.

In order to study the applicability of the Parallax Bundle Adjustment (PBA) in the 3D-photography, the authors extend the mathematical proof of the PBA model which is based on the two-dimensional ...hypothesis, to three dimensions with respect to the sensitivity of parallax angle to observation noise, the singularity of the normal equation, and the degree of linearization. Furthermore, with a set of narrow intersection-angles (2.11x10-8 to 2.11x10-12 rads), the 3D-scenes in short-baseline photography are simulated, and employed to verify the proof. Theoretical analysis and experimental results demenstrate that the current version of PBA is only suitable for the 2D-photography, but not suitable to solve the short-baseline problem in the 3D-photography.
