Aims and Scope


Journal of Italian Cinema & Media Studies(JICMS) is an English-language 
forum for theoretical, methodological and critical debate on Italian 
film and media production, reception and consumption. It provides a 
platform for dialogue between academics, filmmakers, cinema and media 
professionals. This peer-reviewed journal invites submissions of 
scholarly articles relating to the artistic features, cultural themes, 
international influence and history of Italian film and media. 
Furthermore, the journal intends to revive a critical discussion on the 
auteurs, revisit the historiography of Italian cinema and celebrate the 
dynamic role played by new directors. The journal includes a book and 
film review section as well as notes on Italian film festivals abroad 
and international conference reports.


The profound transformation undergone by the rapidly expanding media 
environment under the impact of digital technology, has lead scholars in 
the field of media studies to elaborate new theoretical paradigms and 
methodological approaches to account for the complexities of a changing 
landscape of convergence and hybridization. The boundaries between 
cinema and media as art forms and fields of inquiry are increasingly 
hybridized too. Taking into account this evolving scenario, JICMS 
provides an international arena for critical engagement with a wider 
range of issues related to the current media environment. The journal 
welcomes in particular contributions that discuss any aspects of Italian 
media production, distribution and consumption within national and 
transnational, social, political, economic and historical contexts.


Within the realm of a post-national and trans-cultural debate, the 
purpose of JICMS is to refer to Italy as the unifying site for a 
contemporary discussion on translocal cinema. The journal aims to 
elaborate a multifaceted definition of Italian cinema, transcending 
geo-ethnic land and sea borders and moving away from merely celebratory 
local cinematic experiences. Therefore, the journal also devotes 
attention to Italophone filmmakers and diasporic, accented or exilic 
cinema. JICMS is also interested in the artistic intersections between 
Italian and other international cinemas.


JICMS also invites submissions which examine experimental cinema, video 
art, short films, long/short feature and documentary animation, original 
and adapted screenplays, film music (songs and scores), issues of 
stardom and reception studies. The professional contributions of 
screenplay writers, art directors, cinematographers, film editors, 
costume designers and make-up artists are also potential subject areas 
for submissions.
