[ecrea] Studies in Comics journal - Call for Papers

Wed Jul 15 09:05:44 GMT 2009



Studies in Comics is a new peer-reviewed journal published by Intellect (<http://www.intellectbooks.co.uk/journals/view-Journal,id=168/>http://www.intellectbooks.co.uk/journals/view-Journal,id=168/).

Edited by Julia Round (<(jround /at/ bournemouth.ac.htm)>(jround /at/ bournemouth.ac.uk)), Chris Murray (<(c.murray /at/ dundee.ac.htm)>(c.murray /at/ dundee.ac.uk)), Dean Chan (<(d.chan /at/ ecu.edu.htm)>(d.chan /at/ ecu.edu.au)) and M. Thomas Inge (<(tinge /at/ rmc.htm)>(tinge /at/ rmc.edu)), Studies in Comics aims to describe the nature of comics, identify the medium as a distinct art form, and address its formal properties.

The emerging field of comics studies is a model for interdisciplinary research and this journal welcomes all approaches and methodologies. Its specific goal, however, is to expand the relationship between comics and theory and to seek to articulate a 'theory of comics'.

The editors welcome articles that explore the formal properties of comics, advance their own theory of comics, or respond to an established theoretical model. The journal will also contain reviews of new comics, scholarship, criticism, and exhibitions, as well as unpublished creative work.
