Resumo:
The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the photographer´s perception of images of death published in print media, supported by the works of Michel Maffesoli and Dominique Wolton. To achieve that objective, ten photographers were interviewed and asked to provide their opinions about the publication, production and reception of images of death, covering topics such as the edition and manipulation of such images, the publication of pictures in different kinds of periodicals and the theme of Ethics in the field of Social Communications. The narratives lead to the conclusion that the public is generally perceived as acquiescent to violent images, the lower social classes above all. There are different rationales associated to such publications, such as the public´s inclination towards sheer violence, the brutality of life and the pretext of photojournalism. There is a concern for extracting the beauty in death, and to photograph it in a subtle and indirect manner. Common sense, respect to the masses and the public´s reaction are considered the main regulating factors by these publications - codes of ethics are not mentioned. There is no consensus among the interviewees as to the occurrence of images of death in relation to the past and its manipulation. The regulating factors of their production and publication are mostly ambiguous and inexplicit.
