Regarding the Pain of Others is a 2003 book by Susan Sontag, which was nominated for the National Book Critics Circle Award.
 It was her last published book before her death in 2004.
 It is regarded by many to be a follow-up or addendum to "On Photography," despite the fact that the two books have radically different opinions about photography.
 This long essay is especially interested in war photography.
 Using photography to back up her points, Sontag sets out to answer one of the three questions posed in Virginia Woolf's book "Three Guineas", "How in your opinion are we to prevent war?"

Against Interpretation is a collection of essays by Susan Sontag published in 1966.
 It includes some of Sontag's best-known works, including "On Style," and the eponymous essay "Against Interpretation."
 In the last, Sontag argues that in the new approach to aesthetics the spiritual importance of art is being replaced by the emphasis on the intellect.
 Rather than recognizing great creative works as possible sources of energy, she argues, contemporary critics were all too often taking art's transcendental power for granted, and focusing instead on their own intellectually constructed abstractions like "form" and "content."
 In effect, she wrote, interpretation had become "the intellect's revenge upon art."
 The essay famously finishes with the words, "in place of a hermeneutics we need an erotics of art".
 The book was a finalist for the Arts and Letters category of the National Book Award
