500    Essays and photographs from two workshops organized by the
       Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology and held at

       fifteen daguerreotypes by Joseph T. Zealy discovered at 
       the museum in 1976.

       index. 
520    "To Make Their Own Way in the World is a profound 
       consideration of some of the most challenging images in 
       the early history of photography. The fifteen 
       daguerreotypes-made in 1850 by photographer Joseph T. 
       Zealy portray Alfred, Delia, Drana, Fassena, Jack, Jem, 
       and Renty, men and women of African descent who were 
       enslaved in South Carolina. Since 1976, when the 
       daguerreotypes were rediscovered at Harvard University's 
       Peabody Museum, the photographs have been the subject of 
       intense and widespread study. To Make Their Own Way in the
       World features essays by prominent scholars who explore 
       topics ranging from the photographs' historical context 
       and the "science" of race to the ways in which photography
       created a visual narrative of slavery and its effects. 
       Multidisciplinary, deeply collaborative, and with more 
       than two hundred illustrations, including new photography 
       by contemporary artist Carrie Mae Weems, this book frames 
       the Zealy daguerreotypes as works of urgent engagement"--
