Abstract

This paper focuses on the following question: how is philosophy of anything possible? Where lies the boundary of specialisation area beyond which the term?philosophy? loses not only its strength, but also its meaning? When we talk about specific genre, for example, graphic art or sculpture we use the term?philosophy? in a broader, metaphorical sense. Why then should philosophy of photography be any different? All of the abovementioned questions are discussed in the present article. Philosophy of photography is, indeed, a legitimate discipline, just as philosophy of language, philosophy of science and technology and philosophy of politics are. nema
