Contents
I became a historian of photography by accident. Way back in December 2007, I was starting my research and Javier Ordez asked me: why dont you look at photographs? I, a philosophy and history of science graduate with no previous knowledge or interest in photography, foolishly said: okay! When I came back to Paris, where I was spending the year, I made an appointment at the Bibliothque de Documentation Internationale Contemporaine (now La Contemporaine) to look at their First World War photographic collection. Being in the archive, opening drawers full of pictures and handling albums made by veterans and nurses almost a century before was like nothing I had ever experienced in my academic life.
