CFP: ImageTexT: Interdisciplinary Comics Studies (ongoing; journal issue)
The online journal ImageTexT: Interdisciplinary Comics Studies is soliciting articles and book reviews for the forthcoming fall issue. ImageTexT is an academic journal for the study of comics, including: comic books, comic strips, graphic novels, children's picture books, works that combine image and text, and animated cartoons.
For the fall issue, ImageTexT is accepting articles on any aspect of comics, but is particularly looking for articles on "The Comic Strip." ImageTexT publishes solicited and peer-reviewed papers that investigate the material, historical, theoretical, and cultural implications of visual textuality. ImageTexT welcomes essays emphasizing (but not limited to) the aesthetics, cognition, production, reception, distribution and dissemination of comics and other media as they relate to comics, along with translations of previously existing research on comics as dimensions of visual
culture. Exploring all periods and all countries, and deploying a wide range of disciplinary approaches, ImageTexT is designed to foster innovative discussions of the political and social implications of comics, to generate original formal aesthetic analyses of comics, and to broaden theoretical discussions of genre, period, narrative, and complex image/text relationships in comics and related media.
ImageTexT is also soliciting reviews of current scholarship in the field as well as artistic works. Please contact the editors to suggest a work for review before submitting a review. Reviews generally range 1,000-3,000 words.
Articles submitted generally range between 5,000 and 10,000 words including notes. Because of the interdisciplinary nature of ImageTexT, preferred style formats include MLA, APA, and Chicago. Please submit all articles through the web based submission
system (http://www.nwe.ufl.edu/~zwhalen/cgi/review/submit.shtml), or send as an attachment including images, video etc. to [email protected]. If you cannot send attachments of this size please send a copy of your article to the address below. All postal mail submissions must include a copy of the article in electronic form on either a floppy disk or a CD along with 3 print copies of the article. Articles should be submitted preferably in HTML, or as Microsoft Word, StarOffice, or OpenOffice documents. Webbed essays are encouraged.
