[csaa-forum] Books for review in Continuum III: Film studies and/or cultures

[Mark Bahnisch]

Hi colleagues

Further to my last emails, I'm calling for more reviewers for *Continuum. *I've
placed almost all the ones I recently solicited reviewers for on this list,
so it's time for another batch - this time on film - and it looks like
there's some fascinating reading among the ones we have for review. The
titles, authors/editors and publication details are listed at the end of
this email.

Please email me (mbahnisch at gmail.com) if you would like to write a review,
suggest a suitable reviewer, or suggest other titles to review. Reviews are
usually around 1000 words in length, with a maximum of 1500 words. The *
Continuum* editors are particularly interested in encouraging review essays,
so proposals for longer pieces of 2000-3000 words on thematically linked
texts are very welcome indeed. Upcoming deadlines are June 20, August 17 and
October 10, but I'd find it useful if reviews could be submitted to me one
week in advance to facilitate refereeing (in the case of essays) and
editing.

Many of these titles will make a fantastic addition to your collection, and
they are all well worthy of review, so please assist your colleagues who are
authors if you can, and please assist us in making the books review pages of
*Continuum* a highlight of each edition.

If you'd like more information about any of the books listed, please feel
free to email me.

kind regards

mark
