历史唤起了过去的形象，并将其带入我们的现在。照片既促进了这一历史进程，有时又显着决定了这一历史进程，尤其是在二十世纪。无论好坏，它们都不可逆转地塑造了我们想象现代历史人物和遗址的方式。从臭名昭著的独裁者到大规模的政治集会，从激进的抗议到日常的休闲活动：照片构成了强大的框架，我们历史学家通过这些框架向我们自己和观众展示过去。
History conjures up an image of the past and transports it into our present. Photographs both facilitate and, at times, markedly determine this historical process, especially for the twentieth century. For better or worse, they have irrevocably shaped the way we imagine the characters and sites of modern history. From infamous dictators to mass political rallies, from radical protests to everyday leisure pursuits: photographs form powerful frames through which we historians represent the past to ourselves and to our audiences.
