Call for Papers \u2013 Special Issue on Gender and Sexuality<\/p>\n

Gender and sexuality
\nSpecial Issue Editor: Catherine Haworth<\/p>\n

Research into the function and effect of the soundtrack in audiovisual media continues to develop and diversify, but investigation of the theories and ideologies of difference remain underrepresented within these debates. One such area is that of gendered and sexual difference, where despite significant contributions by several scholars, a systematic, focused, and extensive body of work has yet to emerge. Submissions that consider the sonic representation, articulation, or dissemination of gendered and sexual identities or ideologies are therefore invited for this special issue of Music, Sound, and the Moving Image, which aims to build upon the strengths of existing work and explore new directions for future research.<\/p>\n

Contributions may take the form of full length essays (around 7,500 words) or shorter position papers (1,000-1,500 words) that articulate a particular analytical, critical, theoretical, or methodological standpoint or issue. The journal is also committed to publishing English translations of significant articles from other languages, and proposals or recommendations for translations within the remit of this edition are also welcome. Topics that contributors may wish to address include, but are not limited to:<\/p>\n

\u2022 The application or relevance of queer theory or notions of difference to any aspect of the soundtrack
\n\u2022 The collapse of categories of difference together within the space of the soundtrack
\n\u2022 Feminist analyses of individual texts, or feminist approaches to wider issues or concepts within soundtrack studies
\n\u2022 Masculinities and their sonic articulation or problematisation within audiovisual media
\n\u2022 The relationship(s) between subjectivity, gender, and sexuality in multimedia texts and\/or their audiences
\n\u2022 Relationships between gender, sexuality and the voice in audiovisual media, including any aspects of spoken or sung vocality
\n\u2022 The engagement of the soundtrack with gendered character archetypes and their various roles, behaviours, and potential audience appeals \u2013 the ‘hero’, ‘heroine’, ‘femme fatale’, ‘villain’ etc. and their incarnations across various media forms and genres \u2022 The role(s) and effects of gender and sexuality within production, distribution, and marketing practices in audiovisual media
\n\u2022 Consideration of gendered and sexual identities within audience, fan, and reception cultures, including ethnographic or psychologically-based approaches
\n\u2022 The relationship between star and fan texts, identities, and cultures with gender, sexuality, and the soundtrack<\/p>\n

The final deadline for submissions is 31 October 2011. Please send any queries to Catherine Haworth c.m.haworth@leeds.ac.uk<\/p>\n
