Call for Submissions: Documentary Expression and the American South

Call for Submissions: Documentary Expression and the American South
Proposals due January 30, 2009

Southern Spaces (http://www.southernspaces.org) invites proposals for essays, photography, and multimedia projects about documentary expression in the various regions and places of the U.S. South. We encourage submissions that combine innovative scholarship and commentary about documentary work with ideas for digital media elements such as images, maps, audio, or video. We also welcome the submission of original documentary projects.

For this series, Southern Spaces will to publish projects that explore documentary expression in audio, film, art, photography, and other media. Original pieces might examine the work of one or more documentarians; analyze coverage of particular persons, places, or events; or compare the treatment of ideas or images across several documentary works, genres, or decades. To engage with space and place, projects might examine geographically specific sites, imagined geographies related to the U.S. South, migrations and displacements, or relationships between places.
