dc.description.abstractIn this thesis, I have tried to shed light on photographs that otherwise might have stayed in the twilight. In order to better understand these images, I have tried to investigate the problem of indigestibility, through the unpublished photos of the Iraq War, made by Christoph Bangert, Eros Hoagland and Stephanie Sinclair. To answer this question I have, in succession, summarized the situation these images deviate from, analysed the workings of indigestible images, and interpreted the uncomfortable feelings the images brought forward by means of Emmanuel Levinas’ theory of the face of the Other from an ethical perspective.en_US
