It is regarded by many to be a follow-up or addendum to On Photography, despite the fact that the two essay collections convey Sontag's radically different opinions about photography. The essay is especially interested in war photography. Using photography as evidence for her opinions, Sontag sets out to answer one of the three questions posed in Virginia Woolf's book Three Guineas, "How in your opinion are we to prevent war?" While debunking a certain number of common misconceptions (including some to which she contributed) concerning images of pain, horror, and atrocity, Regarding the Pain of Others both underscores their importance and undercuts hopes that they can communicate very much. On the one hand, narrative and framing confer upon images most of their meaning, and on the other, Sontag says, those who have not lived through such things "can't understand, can't imagine" the experiences such images represent.[3] References1. ^{{cite news|last=Leonard|first=John|title=Not What Happened but Why|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2003/03/23/books/not-what-happened-but-why.html?pagewanted=all&src=pm|newspaper=The New York Times|date=March 23, 2003}} {{art-book-stub}}2. ^{{cite news|last=Conrad|first=Peter|title=What the eye can't see...|url=https://www.theguardian.com/theobserver/2003/aug/03/society|newspaper=The Observer|date=2 August 2003}} 3. ^Susan Sontag, Regarding the Pain of Others (New York: Picador/Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2003), 126. 4 : 2003 non-fiction books|Works by Susan Sontag|Books about war photography|Farrar, Straus and Giroux books |
