Early Popular Visual Culture

期刊简介：Early Popular Visual Culture (EPVC) is a peer-reviewed, academic journal dedicated to stimulating research and interdisciplinary studies in relation to all forms of popular visual culture before 1930. EPVC examines the use and exploitation of popular cultural forms such as (but not limited to) cinema, photography, the magic lantern, panoramas, music hall, illustrated books and periodicals, cartoon strips, circus, stage performances, posters and caricatures in the fields of entertainment, education, science, advertising and the domestic environment, and is primarily concerned with the evolving social, technological and economic contexts which such popular cultural products inhabited and influenced. The journal publishes a range of original historical, theoretical and methodological articles on early popular visual culture, as well as offering selected facsimile materials of obscure and rare sources, reviews and research reports. There are also regular special thematic issues. It is published in English only. Peer Review Policy: Unsolicited articles are subject to initial editor screening and anonymized reviewing by at least two anonymous referees. Articles in special issues and special sections are subject to initial editor screening via proposals and are then subject to review by the guest editor and one anonymous referee. Editorial Standards: While Early Popular Visual Culture often publishes articles that discuss cultural works featuring dehumanising language uses and/or images (meaning that readers will be exposed to partial or full reproductions of historical works that would constitute hate speech if published for the first time today), the editorial standards of Early Popular Visual Culture include 1) that authors’ own original writing should not include dehumanising representations of any kind, in line with the academic principle of writing in value-neutral prose, and 2) that when authors discuss cultural works that include instances of dehumanising language use and/or images, authors’ own discussion of those instances should clearly identify the historical context that produced them, so as to minimise the risk of normalising those language uses and/or images in contemporary usage. Editors will work with authors who intend to include sensitive materials to ensure that the journal's editorial standards are met.

We needed this journal!" Professor Tom Gunning, University of Chicago "This handsome new journal responds to a real need: the exploration of culture which thinks outside disciplinary boxes, and brings together experts from a wide range of backgrounds to focus upon the fascinating history of the visual." Professor Jacky Bratton, Royal Holloway, University of London
