His discovery and excavation of Tell Halaf in Syria marked an important contribution to knowledge of the ancient Middle East, while his massive study of the Bedouins is still consulted by scholars today. He was also an ardent German patriot, eager to support his country&#8217;s pursuit of its &#8220;place in the sun&#8221;.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\">Excluded by his part-Jewish ancestry from the regular diplomatic service, Oppenheim earned a reputation as &#8220;the Kaiser&#8217;s spy&#8221; because of his intriguing against the British in Cairo, as well as his plan, at the start of the First World War, to incite Muslims under British, French and Russian rule to a jihad against the colonial powers. After 1933, despite being half-Jewish according to the Nuremberg Laws, Oppenheim was not persecuted by the Nazis. In fact, he placed his knowledge of the Middle East and his connections with Muslim leaders at the service of the regime.<\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\">Click <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/programmes\/specialseries\/2014\/11\/world-war-one-through-arab-eyes-20141114133936678600.html?\">here<\/a> to listen to Lionel Gossman talking about The Passion of Max von Oppenheim, in the second episode of the three-part series <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/programmes\/specialseries\/2014\/11\/world-war-one-through-arab-eyes-20141114133936678600.html?\">World War One Through Arab Eyes<\/a> broadcast by Al Jazeera.<\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\"><\/div>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>ISBN\u00a0(Paperback)<\/strong> : 9781909254206<\/li>\n<li><strong>ISBN (Hardback)<\/strong>: 9781909254213<\/li>\n<li><strong>ISBN (PDF)\u00a0<\/strong>: 9781909254220<\/li>\n<li><strong>ISBN (e-book (epub))<\/strong> : 9781909254237<\/li>\n<li><strong>ISBN (e-book (mobi))<\/strong> : 9781909254244<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"content\">\n<div id=\"content_padding\">\n<div class=\"product\">\n<div class=\"productdetail\">\n<h2>2015: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.openbookpublishers.com\/product\/339\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Thomas Annan of Glasgow: Pioneer of the Documentary Photograph<\/a><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>In the wake of Glasgow\u2019s transformation in the nineteenth-century into an industrial powerhouse \u2014 the &#8220;Second City of the Empire&#8221; \u2014 a substantial part of the old town of Adam Smith degenerated into an overcrowded and disease-ridden slum. The Old Closes and Streets of Glasgow, Thomas Annan\u2019s photographic record of this central section of the city prior to its demolition in accordance with the City of Glasgow Improvements Act of 1866, is widely recognized as a classic of nineteenth-century documentary photography. Annan\u2019s achievement as a photographer of paintings, portraits and landscapes is less widely known. Thomas Annan of Glasgow: Pioneer of the Documentary Photograph offers a handy, comprehensive and copiously illustrated overview of the full range of the photographer\u2019s work. The book opens with a brief account of the immediate context of Annan\u2019s career as a photographer: the astonishing florescence of photography in Victorian Scotland. Successive chapters deal with each of the main fields of his activity, touching along the way on issues such as the nineteenth-century debate over the status of photography \u2014 a mechanical practice or an artistic one? \u2014 and the still ongoing controversies surrounding the documentary photograph in particular. While the text itself is intended for the general reader, extensive endnotes amplify particular themes and offer guidance to readers interested in pursuing them further.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>ISBN (Paperback)<\/strong> : 9781783741274<\/li>\n<li><strong>ISBN (Hardback)<\/strong> : 9781783741281<\/li>\n<li><strong>ISBN (PDF):<\/strong> 9781783741298<\/li>\n<li><strong>ISBN (e-book (epub))<\/strong> : 9781783741304<\/li>\n<li><strong>ISBN (e-book (mobi))<\/strong> : 9781783741311<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OpenBook publishers make high-quality research available to readers around the world in the form of monographs and textbooks in all areas.
