This project is the history of war photography in Life magazine, an American idea and a cultural object. As an idea, Life originated with Henry R. Luce, who wanted his magazine to chronicle the successes of the nationalism and American possibility he so wholeheartedly believed in. As a cultural object, the magazine is a record of how that vision actually played out in images and their accompanying written texts. Life meant to be, was, and is known for its visuals, specifically its photo-essays, with their clear beginning, middle and end and clear messaging. Life's photographic essays represented a form of political imagining that thrived during World War II, when circulation numbers skyrocketed and the magazine collaborated with censors in the Roosevelt administration, but became less desirable and less persuasive during the Korean War and later the war in Vietnam, so much so that the magazine eventually folded. What led to Life's most iconic photographic essays of the Second World War and what changed, internally at the magazine and in American culture, to make the medium ineffectual by the time of the Vietnam War is the topic of this dissertation.
