Along the bayous of south Louisiana, with its majestic oak trees draped in Spanish moss, open prairies teeming with wildlife, and lush primeval forest, the Chitimacha lived long before the first white settlers arrived in the Attakapas District around 1746. The newcomers would travel by oxcart and boat along waterways lined in flowering magnolias, pecan trees, and grapevines to establish new homesteads. In April 1811, a territorial act that divided Attakapas County created St. Mary Parish. Sugarcane plantations with idyllic names such as Idlewild and Shady Side were established, and timber, trapping, fishing, and agriculture prospered. Later, oil and gas with its many support industries became part of the rich heritage of south Louisiana. The first settlers endured many hardships: floods, storms, outbreaks of yellow fever, and the challenges of the Civil War. St. Mary Parish has seen its share of changes over the centuries, but the tenacity, resourcefulness, and pride of the people remain as constant and endless as the slowly flowing waters of the bayous to the Gulf of Mexico.

Eine Leseprobe finden Sie unter "http://verlag.sandstein.de/reader/98-365_FredStein"Fred Stein gehört zu den Pionieren der Kleinbildfotografie der 1930er und 1940er Jahre. Das fotografische OEuvre des Quereinsteigers ist ein bewegendes und bewegtes Zeugnis der Geschichte des 20. Jahrhunderts; er schuf beeindruckende Ansichten von Städten und Menschen. Im Jahr 1909 als Sohn eines Rabbiners in Dresden geboren, war der überzeugte Sozialist nach dem Machtantritt der Nationalsozialisten 1933 gezwungen, seine Heimatstadt zu verlassen. In der Not der Flucht und Emigration offenbarte sich sein herausragendes Talent als sensibler Porträt- und Straßenfotograf. Die Liste der Porträtierten liest sich wie das »Who is Who« des 20. Jahrhunderts: Hannah Arendt, Albert Einstein, Willy Brandt, Arnold Zweig, Egon Erwin Kisch, Bertolt Brecht, Marlene Dietrich, Salvador Dalí, Martin Buber, Thomas Mann. Seine Fotografien zeichnen sich durch tiefe Menschlichkeit und einen hintergründigen Humor aus. Als humanistisch gesinnter Intellektueller bewahrte er sich immer den Blick für das Ganze - er fotografierte mehr als nur den perfekten Augenblick. Der Katalog zeigt eine Auswahl der bedeutendsten Fotografien Fred Steins. Eine ausführliche Bildbiografie erzählt das Leben des Künstlers, und Essays namhafter Kunst- und Kulturhistoriker ordnen sein Werk in den kunsthistorischen und ideengeschichtlichen Kontext ein.
