Described by W. B. Yeats as "the nearest approach they have to a true poet," Susan Mitchell (1866–1926) was an active and valued member of Dublin society. Originally from Carrick-on-Shannon and raised by Unionist aunts in Dublin, she rebelled against privileged society and the Protestant Church in which she was raised. By a trick of fate, Mitchell exchanged her life as a gentlewoman in provincial Ireland for that of a journalist working on progressive publications in Dublin, where she gained a reputation for lampooning contemporary politics and the literary world. Pyle provides readers a glimpse of her satirical commentary and singular perspective on Dublin’s tumultuous years.
Susan Sontag’s 1997 text, On Photography, brought photographic theory into the university classroom with its staunch defence of the medium as art and inspired a new wave of Marxist Criticism in the field. Sontag explains the way in which we are addicted to images and depend on them for knowledge of our surroundings and the problems and challenges this causes. Already an established academic figure, Sontag brought Walter Benjamin’s theories in into the academic mainstream. The book retains its relevance in the everyday world because of the applicability of its ideas to the world of digital photography.
