Fwd: Premiere of FILM HISTORY Vol. 25, no. 1-2

From: Film History <[email protected]>

"Inquiries, Speculations, Provocations," a special double issue of Film
History (Volume 25, No. 1-2) is the first issue edited by Gregory A. Waller
at the journal's new home at Indiana University, Bloomington. Waller, IU
professor of film and media studies, succeeds Richard Koszarski as
editor-in-chief.

The journal, published by Indiana University Press for the past decade, is
now housed in IU's Film and Media Studies Program in the Department of
Communication and Culture in the College of Arts and Sciences.

Rather than being asked to take stock of the discipline or predict its
future, the more than 20 contributors to the issue were asked to examine a
research question, weigh in on a historiographical issue, or explore the
implications of a particular piece of evidence. The result is a rich array
of finely tuned micro-analyses and pointedly provocative interventions.

"Inquiries, Speculations, Provocations" underscores Film History's
commitment to publishing original research across the full range of
international film history, from the production, distribution, exhibition
and reception of moving pictures to the technological, economic, political
and legal aspects of film and the role of cinema as a contested cultural
phenomenon.

Film History Volume 25, No. 1-2, is available online at JSTOR and Project
MUSE:

Project MUSE: http://muse.jhu.edu/journals/film_history/

The editorial team encourages new queries and submissions for original
research on the international history of cinema, from pre-cinema to the
21st century, broadly and inclusively understood. Areas of interest include
the production, distribution, exhibition, and reception of films designed
for commercial theaters, as well as the full range of non-theatrical,
non-commercial uses of motion pictures; the role of cinema as a contested
cultural phenomena; the technological, economic, political, and legal
aspects of film history; the circulation of film within and across national
borders; and the relations between film and other visual media and forms of
commercial entertainment. Film History also welcomes proposals for review
essays and reassessments of classic texts in film history.
