Abstract
Ovaj se rad bavi istraživanjem načina prezentacije zapadne i drugih kultura u Pulitzerom nagrađenim fotografijama. Uzevši u obzir pojmove vizualizacije kulture i ljudske svakodnevice, spektakla kao modernog okruženja u kojem živimo i vodećeg načina prikazivanja medijskog sadržaja te patnje kao njegove osnovne teme, slike su identificirane kao jedan od ključnih faktora u našem poimanju svijeta oko sebe. Pulitzerova je nagrada, s godinama, postala statusni simbol za iznimne novinarske radove, pa... More tako i fotografije. Izdvojivši osam fotografija koje maksimiziraju udaljenost 'nas' i 'njih', cilj je ovog rada bio prikazati kakva se prezentacija 'drugih', pa tako i 'nas', kao implicirane suprotnosti njima, može iščitati te što sve ima ulogu u takvoj prezentaciji. Odabravši metodu analize narativa, fotografije su shvaćene kao interpretacija značenja samog događaja koji prikazuje od strane fotoreportera. Ona je, najvećim dijelom, bila usmjerena na 'druge' kao ubojice ili kao bespomoćne i inferiorne 'nama' dok smo 'mi', kao pripadnici zapadne kulture suosjećajni, mirno rješavamo sukobe i možemo se brinuti sami o sebi. Takva je prezentacija, pokazalo se, rezultat sadržaja kadra, kao i plana, kuta snimanja, kompozicije i ostalih stalnih svojstava fotografije. Svjestan ograničenja ove metodologije u generaliziranju rezultata, kao i preferiranog čitanja koji predstavlja interpretaciju interpretacije, ovaj bi rad mogao poslužiti kao motivacija i poziv drugim istraživačima za što disciplinarniji pristup proučavanju dekodiranja preferiranog značenja.

Abstract (english)
This paper is an inquiry into the ways of representing 'our' Western culture and 'other' cultures in Pulitzer prize-winning photographs. Considering terms like visualization of culture, spectacle as the kind of environment we exist in and the main way media content is presented to us and suffering as spectacles' main theme, images are identified as one of the main factors in understanding the world. Pulitzer prize-winning photographs are often and usually perceived as the best examples of... More photojournalism and as such, they give us an extraordinary and often heartbreaking insight into the lives of others. By analyzing eight of the awarded photos which maximized the distance between 'us' and 'them', the main goal of this paper was to show how 'others' are presented and to identify what plays role in that presentation. The research method used in this paper was narrative analysis and photographs were perceived as reporters' interpretation of captured event. In most of the analyzed photos, 'others' were presented as either heartless killers or helpless and inferior to 'us'. Judgment of their actions arising from those events depicted on photographs implies that 'we', as members of Western culture, are opposite. 'We' are compassionate and trying to solve conflicts peacefully, not by killing people who have opinions and beliefs which differs from ours. Those representations are, of course, the result of events captured on photographs, but also of photographers' 'interventions' - composition, camera angle, field sizes, use of lenses etc. Aware of the fact that narrative analysis cannot provide generalization of results and given the problems of preffered reading as interpretation of the interpretation, this paper could serve as motivation for other researchers to further explore the complex field of decoding the preffered readings od media texts.
