Thu Dec 07 09:17:05 GMT 2017





*_CFP: Walt Disney’s /Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs/_*

Dear all,

With the usual apologies for cross-posting.

A reminder to all that there is just over a week to go for those colleagues who wish to submit a chapter abstract for an edited collection on the first feature-length cel-animated film produced by the Walt Disney Studio: /Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs/ (David Hand, 1937). We are on the lookout for a few additional chapters to complete the book being edited by Chris Pallant (Canterbury Christ Church University) and Christopher Holliday (King’s College London), and already have a strong expression of interest from a noted publisher. However, to bring up the total number of chapters in the collection we are particularly interested in proposals that deal with the following topic areas:

  * Area studies and /Snow White/
  * Distribution and exhibition (/Snow White/ in South America, Asia,
    Australia)
  * /Snow White /and animated technology (particularly developments in
    colour)
  * Merchandising and marketing the Snow White phenomenon (theme park
    attractions, video game, Broadway musical)
  * /Snow White/ and Disney Home Media (relationship to the Walt Disney
    Masterpiece Collection, Disney’s Platinum Editions, Diamond
    Editions, Walt Disney Signature Collection Line)
  * Adaptations of Disney’s /Snow White/ (newspaper comic strip, /Coal
    Black and de Sebben Dwarfs/, /Snow White with the Red Hair/)
  * /Snow White/ and animation studies

We are open to other proposals that relate to the above areas, and so please do email the editors for an informal discussion of potential chapter ideas.

Contributors are invited to submit a *300-word abstract* that briefly outlines the structure of your chapter and the manner in which Disney’s film is being framed as a significant moment within cinema history, along with a *short biography* to Dr Chris Pallant ((chris.pallant /at/ canterbury.ac.uk)) and Dr Christopher Holliday ((christopher.holliday /at/ kcl.ac.uk)). The deadline for proposals is *December 15^th  2017*. It is anticipated that final chapters of between 7000-8000 words in length will be due sometime around *August* *2018*.
