People also ask
Why is Sontag interested in war photography?
The essay is especially interested in war photography, using it 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?'

What did Susan Sontag say about war?
Decades later, Susan Sontag reflected on her own perspective as the United States fought wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. In 2003, she began her last book, Regarding the Pain of Others, with a discussion of Three Guineas, describing it as Woolf’s “brave, unwelcome reflection on the roots of war.”

What is Sontag's conclusion to looking at war?
Sontag’s conclusion to “Looking at War” -- or may I say, her non-conclusion, her refusal to conclude after pages of earnest analysis of what it means to regard the pain of others -- is that even if we want to act, we will fail because if we haven’t been in war ourselves, f 11 “we don’t get it. We truly can’t imagine what it was like” (98).

Why does Sontag start with Woolf's example?
There is a tone to Regarding the Pain of Others that suggests Sontag felt she was writing from a dire and urgent political moment, which explains why she begins with Woolf’s example. But I think it’s safe to say that it feels different now.

New content will be added above the current area of focus upon selection
I’ve always thought that one of the things it would be fairly reasonable to have written on my headstone would be, “He often missed the obvious”. I was saying to people at work the other day that there was a part of this book where I thought, “god, how did I get to be 50 and never think of this before?” It was the bit where she talks about the holocaust and holocaust museums and then questions why America doesn’t have a museum to the victims of slavery – you know, those victims are still walking about amongst us to the extent that black American disadvantage is a continuing manifestation of that history and the subsequent imposed ways of thinking caused by that history. Why is there no real museum dedicated to the holocaust that occurred to the Australian Aboriginals? We have a holocaust museum here in Melbourne too. Her discussion of the nature of ‘remembering’ is probably worth the effort in reading the book.Not that this book requires much effort – if there is one thing you can say for Sontag it is that she is a remarkably clear writer and thinker. In many ways this book is Sontag coming back to themes she discusses in On Photography and not always coming to the same conclusions. There is a really nice part of the book where she discusses drawings of the sufferings of war done by Goya where he writes under them captions that say things like, “Look, this actually happened, I'm not making this up.” The point being, in part, that we don’t expect to need to say things like that under a photograph. We might question whether it is a truly representative photograph, but we generally don’t question whether it is true. We still expect today that what we see photographed is a manifestation of the light that struck the lens. She talks about the faking of photographs, …

New content will be added above the current area of focus upon selection
Narratives can make us understand. Photographs do something else: they haunt us.The main focus of this long essay is war photography. At the beginning of the book Sontag cites the question Virginia Woolf posed in her Three Guineas:"How in your opinion are we to prevent war?" Sontag then proceeds to argue the importance of photography, analyzing the different ways photographs have been used in wartime as instruments to elicit sympathy and commiseration or means of propagating pro or anti war sentiments. Nonstop imagery (televisions, streaming video, movies) is our surround, but when it comes to remembering, the photograph has the deeper bite. Memory freeze-frames; its basic unit is the single image. In an era of information overload, the photograph provides a quick way of apprehending something and a compact way for memorizing it. No object is more equated with memory than the camera image. The photograph is like a quotation, or a maxim or proverb. Each of us mentally stocks hundreds of photographs, subject to instant recall.

New content will be added above the current area of focus upon selection
Sometimes back I watched the movie “The Bang-Bang Club” based upon the lives of a group of photojournalists who went by that name in Johannesburg in the mid 80s. These photojournalists mostly clicked photographs of the victims of apartheid or of the violence perpetrated by clashes between different black ethnic groups in South Africa. The movie also focused on the distress which these journalists went through after or while clicking the photographs. One of the journalists of the club, Kevin Carter (played by Taylor Kitsch in the movie), had won a Pulitzer for his famous photograph depicting a starving child and a vulture in famine hit Sudan in 1993. The picture was clicked at such an angle that it seemed that the vulture was waiting for a chance to pounce upon the poor child. There was a huge controversy when this picture was first published and most readers condemned Kevin for a lack of empathy. The St. Petersburg Times wrote: “The man adjusting his lens to take just the right frame of her suffering might just as well be a predator, another vulture on the scene.”After three months of his winning the Pulitzer, Kevin committed suicide. For a few days I was haunted by the movie but eventually I forgot about it. And it wasn’t until I read Regarding the Pain of Others by Sontag that I remembered the movie and my experience of watching and subsequently, forgetting it. As I read the work, I questioned my response to the movie and also to the deluge of images of pain sweeping the social media on the internet. What do I see when I see those images, what do I feel? Do these images, in any way, affect the way we respond to tragedies, to wars, to life? In this work, Sontag presents a Critique on the images of suffering of others. She mulls over the motives of photographers …
