*/VANISHING POINTS /SECTION*

**

Acceptance of articles for the section “Vanishing Points”: *from October 
20th to November 20th 2019*

/L'Atalante. Revista de estudios cinematográficos/accepts submissions of 
unpublished essays on topics related to film theory and/or praxis that 
stand out for their innovative nature. Articles should focus on 
approaches to the cinematographic fact made preferably from the 
perspectives of historiography or audiovisual analysis. Those texts that 
approach novel objects of study with rigorous and well-evidenced 
methodologies will be appreciated. Articles that take as their main 
reference the processes of signification through the analysis of the 
audiovisual form and/or the narratological elements specific to our 
field, focusing on methodologies specifically related to the treatment 
of the image will be favoured in the selection process. Although we 
accept works with other methodologies that approach the filmic fact from 
transversal perspectives (Cultural Studies, philological approaches, 
etc.) we consider that the main interest of the journal is located on 
the studies that take the specifically cinematographic expressive tools 
as the main elements of discourse. Likewise, texts that are not limited 
to describing, enumerating or summarizing details of the plot, but that 
rigorously apply a specific and well-evidenced analysis methodology, 
reaching particular and novel results, will be given priority.

Below are a few aspects to keep in mind:

- Submissions must be original and must conform to the submission 
guidelines of the journal and to the standards and scientific rigour 
expected of an academic publication 
_http://www.revistaatalante.com/index.php?journal=atalante&page=about&op=submissions_

- Submissions will be evaluated for the originality of the topic 
explored, especially if it relates to an issue not previously addressed 
in the publication. Submissions dealing with topics previously addressed 
in the journal may be rejected. The content of the issues published to 
date can be consulted on the journal's website.

- All submissions will undergo an external peer review process that will 
respect the anonymity of both authors and reviewers (double blind peer 
review) in an effort to prevent any possibility of bias. In the event of 
a very high number of submissions, the Editorial Board will make a prior 
selection of the articles to be peer reviewed, choosing the articles 
deemed the most appropriate for the issue. Failure to observe the 
submission guidelines and/or standards of originality and academic 
rigour will result in rejection of the submission by the Editorial Board 
without external review.

- Authors of accepted submissions will be contacted within six months.

- Articles (which should be between 5,000 and 7,000 words including all 
sections) must be submitted via the website of the journal as .rtf, .odt 
or .docx files, using the template provided for this purpose. Files 
containing the author's statement (.pdf) and any images (.psd, .png, 
.jpg, .tiff) must be uploaded to the website as complementary files. A 
detailed version of the submission guidelines can be found at the 
following link. Any articles that fail to meet these requirements will 
be rejected automatically. 
_http://www.revistaatalante.com/index.php?journal=atalante&page=about&op=submissions_

- The selected articles will be published in a bilingual edition 
(Spanish and English). The authors of the texts accepted for publication 
must pay the costs that result from the translation or revision - in the 
case of providing, along with the original, a translated version - of 
their article. In all cases, and in order to guarantee the quality of 
the translations and the unity of linguistic criteria, the text must be 
translated or reviewed by the translator recommended by the journal. His 
work will be paid in advance and via Paypal by the authors.

- /L'Atalante/ does not offer any compensation for published articles.
