Philosophy of Photography is a new peer-reviewed journal published by
Intellect (http://www.intellectbooks.co.uk/journals/view-Journal,id=180/).

Edited by Daniel Rubinstein at London South Bank University
([log in to unmask]) and Andrew Fisher at Goldsmiths College
([log in to unmask]), Philosophy of Photography is devoted to the
scholarly understanding of photography. It is not committed to any one
notion of photography nor, indeed, to any particular philosophical approach.
It will provide a forum for debate of theoretical issues arising from the
historical, political, cultural, scientific and critical matrix of ideas,
practices and techniques that may be said to constitute photography as a
multifaceted form. In a contemporary context remarkable for its diversity
and rate of change, the conjunction of the terms Œphilosophyı and
Œphotographyı in the journalıs title is intended to act as a provocation to
serious reflection on the ways in which existing and emergent photographic
discourses might engage with and inform each other.

The editors welcome inquiries and submissions from researchers and
practitioners in a broad range of disciplines, who seek to explore any
aspect of photography from a theoretical standpoint. The journal will
publish articles, reviews, conference reports, occasional symposia on key
topics and critical analyses of technical developments. The editors will
also consider proposals for contributions in the form of photographic works.
Prospective guest editors with ideas for themed issues are invited to
approach the editors with their proposal. Thank you.
