Abstract(s)

The following PhD thesis in Fine Arts, in the specialty of Art and Heritage Sciences, presents an analysis of photography and the issue of the intolerable present in the images of wars and conflicts. The elaboration of this thesis was determined by the possible relationship that photography can establish with the field of philosophy. To understand what is intolerable and how it is presented in the photographic image, it is necessary to resort to historical documents that make possible the reproduction of the visual memory of barbarian events, in order to bring them to the discussion about their importance and how they can contribute to examine the present time. From the investigation of photographic images, coming from photojournalism, and which fit the articulation with the issue of the intolerable, a series of analyses are carried out on the different philosophical perspectives that relate the figure of the victim, the observation of suffering at a distance, its impact of images in the sphere of public opinion and its preponderance for the alteration of war events
