Horror Theory >(<http://www.horrortheory.com/>http://www.horrortheory.com) >has been created in order to satisfy the craving for serious studies of the >horror genre. The project came into being after noticing the lack of >attention given to the genre by established academic journals. It is intended >first and foremost as a collective of ideas among academics, intellectuals, >scholars, students, and fans of horror films. Its purpose is to provide them >a platform to share their research papers, essays, and ideas about the genre, >ultimately making it a growing resource. > >Horror Theory will publish all the articles and essays it deems of academic >interest. Furthermore, non-academic and undergraduate writings will also be >considered. Another of the journal’s objectives is to facilitate access to >key works, and you can therefore look foreword for the reproduction of >articles by renowned authors in the future. > >But for now, consider this a call out for submissions. We welcome criticism >and theory pertaining to horror films and/or horror culture. Historic >surveys, social and psychological analyses, and author studies will most >certainly be acknowledged. Film reviews will be considered on the basis of >merit and academic relevancy; works of fiction will be approached in the same >manner. Submissions can be in either English or French, and must follow MLA >standards for formatting and layout. To submit your work to the committee, >please attach your document as a Word document in Rich Text Format (.rtf) and >send it to: ><mailto:[log in to unmask]>[log in to unmask] >Horror Theory represents a brand new opportunity to publish your work and to >establish a new journal dedicated to this overlooked genre. Help us to create >the ultimate horror-related journal! ---- Screen-L is sponsored by the Telecommunication & Film Dept., the University of Alabama: http://www.tcf.ua.edu
