*Aims & Scope*
*Philosophy of Photography* is a new peer reviewed journal devoted to the
scholarly understanding of photography. It is not committed to any one
notion of photography nor, indeed, to any particular philosophical approach.
The purpose of the journal is to 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 'philosophy' and 'photography' in the journal's 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.
*Call for Papers*
The editors welcome inquiries and submissions from researchers and
practitioners, from a broad range of disciplines, who seek to explore any
aspect of photography from a theoretical standpoint. The journal publishes
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. Prospective book, exhibition and conference
reviewers should approach the appropriate reviews editor directly.
Please send all inquiries and proposals to to (rubinsd /at/ lsbu.ac.uk). Please
include "philosophy of photography" in the title of the email.
Thank you,
*Philosophy of Photography*
