JOURNAL OF GENDER STUDIES

Special Issue 2015: Call for Papers

‘Diversity in Gender and Visual Representation’

Guest editors: Russell Luyt, Christina Welch and Rosemary Lobban

(JGS editor: Blu Tirohl)

We invite the submission of either research or theory papers for a Journal of Gender

Studies special issue titled ‘Diversity in Gender and Visual Representation’. This will

build upon the successes of a recent interdisciplinary conference dedicated to this topic,

hosted by the Centre for Gender Studies at the University of Winchester (UK).

The special issue will showcase the breadth of contemporary research and theory

concerning the study of gender and visual representation, highlighting divergent

methodological and theoretical insights. The diversity of this interdisciplinary field will

also be evident in the range of different socio-cultural locations, historical periods and

phenomena that interest researchers working in this area. Authors selected for this special

issue will be those who challenge normative societal assumptions, promote broader

critical debate and engage audiences beyond their peers.

Work related to gender and visual representation represents a still growing field situated

within a dynamic and changing technological milieu. Yet, much of the current work

addresses the visual only implicitly and/or in isolation from broader debates. Its explicit

consideration through this special issue will move the field to a more fully articulated

account, mindful of its variable consideration across disciplines. This will provide a handy

conceptual toolkit for those seeking to engage in interdisciplinary research. We argue for

less ‘reinventing the wheel’ and more integrated, and hence potentially sophisticated

thinking in the field of gender and visual representation.

The guest editors invite articles of 5000–7000 words. Please see the Journal of Gender

Studies’ guidance for authors at http://www.tandfonline.com/toc/cjgs20/current.

If you have any queries please email . Email: russell.luyt@anglia.ac.uk

Deadline for submissions: 30th October 2013. Please see the Journal of Gender Studies’

guidance for authors at http://www.tandfonline.com/toc/cjgs20/current
