adam_text | literary critics have traditionally
suggested that the invention of photography
led to the rise of the realist novel, which is
believed to imitate the detail and accuracy
of the photographic image. Instead, says
Stuart Burrows, photography s influence on
American fiction had less to do with any for¬
mal similarity between the two media than
with the capacity of photography to render
American identity and history homogeneous
and reproducible. The camera, according to
Burrows, provoked a representational crisis,
one broadly modernist in character. Since the
photograph is not only a copy of its subject
but a physical product of it, the camera can
be seen as actually challenging mimetic or
realistic theories of representation, which de¬
pend on a recognizable gap between original
and reproduction.
Burrows argues for the centrality of pho¬
tography to a set of writers commonly thought
of as hostile to the camera
—
including Na¬
thaniel Hawthorne, Henry James, William
Faulkner, and
Zora Neale
Hurston. The
photographic metaphors and allusions to
the medium that appear throughout these
writers work demonstrate the ways in which
one representational form actually influences
another
—
by changing how artists conceive
of identity, history, and art itself.
A Familiar Strangeness thus challenges
the notion of an absolute break between
nineteenth-century realism and twentieth-
century modernism, a break that typically
centers precisely on the two movements sup¬
posedly differing relation to the camera. Just
as modernist fiction interrupts and questions
the link between visuality and knowledge, so
American realist fiction can be understood
as making the world less knowable precisely
by making it more visible.
