There was a time when its cover, with the unmistakable yellow frame, seemed to be on every coffee table, in every waiting room. In American Iconographic, Stephanie L. Hawkins traces National Geographic's rise to cultural prominence, from its first publication of nude photographs in 1896 to the 1950s, when the magazine's trademark visual and textual motifs found their way into cartoon caricature, popular novels, and film trading on the "romance" of the magazine's distinctive visual fare. Drawing on the National Geographic Society's archive of readers' letters and its founders' correspondence, Hawkins reveals how the magazine's participation in the "culture industry" was not so straightforward as scholars have assumed. Letters from the magazine's earliest readers offer an important intervention in this narrative of passive spectatorship, revealing how readers resisted and revised National Geographic's authority. Its photographs and articles celebrated American self-reliance and imperialist expansion abroad, but its readers were highly aware of these representational strategies, and alert to inconsistencies between the magazine's editorial vision and its photographs and text. Hawkins also illustrates how the magazine actually encouraged readers to question Western values and identify with those beyond the nation's borders. Chapters devoted to the magazine's practice of photographing its photographers on assignment and to its genre of husband-wife adventurers reveal a more enlightened National Geographic invested in a cosmopolitan vision of a global human family. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 630 00 National geographic|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n00047605|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99005024 630 00 National geographic|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n00047605|xSocial aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh00002758 630 04 National geographic|xHistory|xSocial aspects. 630 7 National geographic.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1357765 630 07 National geographic.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1357765 650 0 Discoveries in geography|xPress coverage.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh92006460 650 0 Photography in ethnology.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85101312 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Social aspects.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1354981 650 7 Discoveries in geography|xPress coverage.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/894956 650 7 Photography in ethnology.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1061856 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|aHawkins, Stephanie L., 1971-|tAmerican iconographic.|dCharlottesville : University of Virginia Press, 2010|z9780813929651|w(DLC) 2009041710 |w(OCoLC)461630762 830 0 Cultural frames, framing culture.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n97072250 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=388839|zOnline eBook.
