Intellect is pleased to present Journal of African Cinemas 16.2-3!


Special Issue: ‘Artistic Epistemologies: Black Cinema and the Idea of 
Africa’


What is Africa? Is it what it was, say, a century ago? What knowledge 
about contemporary Africa is deducible through its cinemas? These 
questions are the backdrop of this Special Issue of the Journal of 
African Cinemas, which aggregates different apertures through which 
Africa can be grasped through its diverse cinematic cultures.

Aims & Scope


The Journal of African Cinemasexplores the interactions of visual and 
verbal narratives in films from and about Africa, no matter where they 
are made. It encourages studies about production, reception and 
audiences, interpretation and theory, and history and technology. The 
journal recognises the shifting paradigms that have defined and continue 
to define African cinemas in relation to cinema everywhere, within 
diverse African languages and cultures. The editors invite papers on the 
perception and identity/identities of Africa and its peoples represented 
in film, in isolation or relation to other cinemas globally. The journal 
aims to create a forum for debate that will promote inter-disciplinarity 
between cinema and other visual and rhetorical forms of representation.
