[Commlist] Alphaville Issue 19 published

We’re delighted to announce publication of the new issue of Alphaville: 
Journal of Film and Screen Media:

Issue 19 – https://doi.org/10.33178/alpha.19

The issue is characterised by a distinct focus on intermediality, 
interartiality and intertextuality. While covering diverse generic and 
geographical areas, both of the issue’s main sections (“Performing the 
Intermedial across Brazilian Cinema”, a selection of articles and 
interviews curated by Tamara Courage and Albert Elduque, and “Music 
Videos in the British Screen Industries and Screen Heritage”, a dossier 
edited by Emily Caston) aim to shed light on some of the ways in which 
music and the moving image have intersected historically, giving rise to 
particular formats, genres, and instances of medium hybridity.

The ambition of this issue of Alphaville is all at once to pay due 
attention to specific films, genres, traditions and styles, to promote 
the scholarly understanding of neglected areas of study, and to 
contribute fresh thinking to the open debate on the most responsive 
methodological tools to characterise and analyse the intermedial in film 
and video.
