The condition of scholarship devoted to the history of women in photography is confounding. Recent years have witnessed the posthumous inflation of the role of the hohhyist Alice Austen into that of a pioneering documentarian while dozens of notable
line senior figures—Marion Palfi, whose photographs of civil-rights activities in the South
5 served as early evidence of the need for protective legislation, to name one—received scant attention from scholars. And, while Naomi Rosenblum’s synoptic History of Women Photographers covers the subject through 1920 in a generally useful fashion, once she reaches the 1920s, when the venues, forms, applications, and movements of the medium expanded exponentially, she resorts to an increasingly terse listing of un-
10 familiar names, with approaches and careers summarized in a sentence or two.
Which of the following statements about Marion Palfi is supported by the passage?
选项
A、Marion Palfi’s photographs would have received greater recognition from historians had her work been done in an era when most aspects of photography were static rather than in a state of transition.
B、Alice Austen has achieved greater notoriety than has Marion Palfi primarily because the subjects that Austen photographed were more familiar to her contemporaries.
C、In addition to providing a record of certain historical events, Marion Palfi’s photographs played a role in subsequent events.
答案
C
解析
Choice C is correct.
Choice A is incorrect: the passage does not state whether the period in which Palfi was working was an era when photography was static or in transition.
Choice B is incorrect: the passage does not state the nature of the subjects Austen photographed, nor compare their relative familiarity to those photographed by Palfi.
Choice C is correct: Palfi’s photographs played a role in subsequent events because they served as early evidence of the need for protective legislation.
