We are pleased to announce the publication of the collective volume Fragments of Images: Between History(ies), Arts, and Societies, focused on visual approaches in the humanities and social sciences. Photography, comics, documentary and ethnographic film, mapping, drawing, visual archives, and digital tools are explored as fully legitimate modes of research and storytelling—still too little recognized in Francophone scholarship.
Bringing together researchers and multidisciplinary artists, the volume examines the unique possibilities that visual practices offer for understanding social life and history. Following John Berger, it invites us to “tell stories differently” and to make visible what words alone cannot capture: fragile, marginal, or overlooked experiences.
In an era marked by the proliferation of images, Fragments d'images reflects a persistent effort to understand and interpret the social world, while reminding us that what we know and what we see is never fixed but always evolving.
