Call for Papers (Edited Volume): Western European Film Since 1990
DEADLINE EXTENDED TO MAY 15, 2018
We are putting together an anthology of current research on Western
European film since 1990 that is intended for both a scholarly and a
student audience. We would be happy to consider submissions from you
if your research interests fall into any of the following topics.
Chapters may include, but are not limited to:
- gender and sexuality
- migration and refugees
- border regions
- terrorism
- transnationalism
- post-communist societies
- political uncertainty and change
- representations of pre-1990 history
The work needs to be genuinely cross-disciplinary, emphasizing
relationships between social change, popular political culture, and
cinematic representation. Chapters might focus either on a specific
film as exemplary of broader developments, or on a wider selection of
films viewed from a thematic perspective. The book is intended for
classroom use in both contemporary European history, culture and film
courses; and the language needs to be straightforward and accessible
to advanced undergraduates and the general reading public. Films
addressed should be available to English-speaking audiences.
If you are interested in contributing a chapter to the project, please
send your CV and a proposal of between 300 and 500 words by May 15,
2018 to John Williams at [log in to unmask] and Alexandra Hagen at
[log in to unmask] We will notify authors of acceptance by June 1,
2018, and the authors will then have until October 31, 2018 to submit
their chapters.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have further questions. We
are looking forward to your contributions.
