This isuue features Georges Didi-Huberman, a French philosopher and art historian, who has attracted remarkable attention for his books on images in recent years. He deploys his thoughts on images across a variety of disciplines such as photography, paintings, movies, etc. And it is full of discoveries on images. What does it brought him to write more than 20 single author books? We visited him in Paris to look for the answer and interview with him.

Shino KURAISHI　　Islands (JP)
	Seeing the photographs which is left in Minami-Daito Island, we can find the landscape that is definitely different from the one of "Japan" as well as the compressed record of the history of '"Japan." Now we must seize Minami-Daito Islands as an isolate island against the concept "archipelago" and it is no doubt that it strikes many variations of the easy understanding of Others.	Daito Islands Youth Marchig Band , Minami-Daito Sonshi, p. 290
Masashi KOHARA　　Mt. Fuji and Photography: A Brief History 1853-1945 (JP)
	Mt. Fuji has been represented in many ways. KOHARA discloses the history of representations of Mt. Fuji, which plays the role of self-representation of Japan/the Japanese with the images from the end of the Edo period to the end of WW2.	Yasusaburo TAMAMURA, Jinrikisha, verse 1880
Kei HIRAKURA　　Muddy Time: Robert Smithson's Spiral Jetty (JP)
	Spiral Jetty is full of the joy and the mysterious force... When we understand that matter and language is infinitely divisible, a vibration inside us will be synchronized with the one of matter. Then the "death" never comes to us.	Film still from Spiral Jetty, 1970. Robert Smithson, University of California Press, 2005, p. 178.
