We are opening a call for papers for contributions for an edited volume 
on Children’s Cinema and Philosophy entitled Shared Emotions: Children’s 
World & Cinema.

The field of Cinema and Philosophy is a growing field of research and it 
has been the subject of several thematic volumes both edited and 
monographic. Often, those publications remain open to diversified 
aspects and approaches. Contrary to this, the present volume is 
concerned with a simultaneously circumscribed and manifold figure: that 
of the child and his or her particular experiences and ways of 
understanding the world, as shown through cinema. The idea is to 
assemble heterogeneous approaches on the way in which we grow up with 
cinema, how cinema forges our ways of perceiving and conceiving the 
world and how imaginary constructions associated with infancy are 
performed through cinema.
Predicted possible topics include, but are not limited to:

- Children’s experiences and their epistemological and political impact
- Pedagogy and its other: approaching children from an adult’s perspective
- Nietzschean, Bejaminian, Deleuzian or other philosophers’ approaches 
to childhood and their cinematic reflection
- Perception, Knowledge and Recognition
- The Meaning of Shared Values
- Growth, Aggression and Violence
- Strong affects: On Laughing and Crying at the Cinema
- Transformation and mimesis

We welcome approaches from different philosophical and film theory 
perspectives, as well as approaches related to other scientific areas 
and subjects beyond philosophy and film theory while holding 
philosophical and film theoretical insights.

Submission: Please send your abstract (up to 500 words) and a short CV 
(for each author/co-author) to

(Sharedemotions.edition /at/ gmail.com) 
<mailto:(Sharedemotions.edition /at/ gmail.com)>, by October 15th, 2017.

The notification of acceptance will be on November 15th.

Full articles should be between 5000 and 8000 words, and follow Chicago 
Style. They are due on January 30th 2018.
