[Commlist] New book series: Trajectories of Italian Cinema and Media

Intellect is delighted to announce a new book series, /Trajectories of 
Italian Cinema and Media/, edited by Flavia Laviosa. This book series 
will build upon the success of the /Journal of Italian Cinema & Media 
Studies 
<https://www.intellectbooks.com/journal-of-italian-cinema-media-studies> - 
/also edited by Flavia Laviosa. Both the journal and the book series 
seeks to provide a forum for a diversity of voices and transnational 
perspectives on Italian cinema and media, and welcome proposals that 
discuss media as a distinct academic discipline focusing on theoretical 
approaches and aesthetics of texts within Italian social, political, 
economic and historical contexts. The series will publish its first 
title in early 2020.

The book series /Trajectories of Italian Cinema and Media/ intends to 
engage with diverse academic communities, build new conceptual 
frameworks and foster a globally-focused and representative corpus of 
scholarship in Italian cinema and media studies. With the aim to explore 
new critical and historical trajectories, this book series seeks to 
trace the evidence of Italian cinema's international polysemy and 
polycentrism, define the extent of its inspirational force, examine 
other cinemas' artistic innovations resulting from their osmosis with 
the Italian film tradition and foster comparative analyses of themes and 
genres between Italian and other world cinemas.

The main goals of the book series are:

1. To bring scholars, critics, journalists, filmmakers, film and media 
professionals, film festival organisers and students to facilitate a 
dialogue across critical approaches and creative practices;

2. To expand the horizons of interconnected areas of inquiries to 
revisit the past, study the present and envision the future of Italian 
cinema;

3. To provide an arena for critical engagement and trajectories in 
studies on media and their interdisciplinary research into audiences and 
consumers, authors and producers, cultural history and geography, 
political regimes, or economic forces, the individual and the social, 
cultural and political dimensions of new media, the global and local 
dimensions of the relationship between media and social change.

To propose a manuscript to be included in the series, or for more
