Call for submissions
Screen, vol.50, no.1 (Spring 2009): special 50th anniversary issue
To celebrate Screen's 50th birthday, we are planning a special anniversary
issue (Spring 2009) on screen theory, which we take to mean conceptual
work and also historical, critical and empirical work that pushes at the
boundaries of medium-specific theorisation and conceptualisation in all
areas of screen theory, including cinema, television, art gallery moving
image, and other moving image screen media. We do not exclude what is
sometimes called 'Screen Theory'-we are not, in other words, proposing to
ignore Screen's formative role in theoretical developments in our
discipline over the last fifty years-but this will not be a central focus.
The concern will be to set out key current developments.
The issue will comprise twenty or so short (around 4000-word) articles,
and will feature none of the usual reviews, reports, etc. Most of these
will be by invited contributors, but we would like also to include
material submitted to the journal. If you wish to submit an article
covering one or more of the abovementioned areas for consideration for the
special issue, please send it to the Screen office, to arrive no later
than 30 May 2008. Please note, we require 2 hard copies and an electronic
copy (maybe submitted by email). Please be sure to indicate on your
submission that it is for the anniversary issue.
For further details of how to submit material, and of the 50th Anniversary
celebrations and events, visit the Screen website
