Cinema Journal -- Call for Translations
Below you will find the Cinema Journal's call for translation proposals for 2018, open to those on the list who are also members of the Society of Cinema and Media Studies. Please note a change from previous years: in addition to accepting translations of single texts of 8,000 to 10,000 words, the journal will now be accepting curated groups of smaller texts adding up to that word count. Any inquiries specific to Chinese-to-English translations may be directed to hongwei_chen at brown.edu
Best,

Cinema Journal
Call for Translations 2018
Cinema Journal publishes translations of outstanding scholarly and creative work. The originals may be in any language and come from any period or geographic region. We welcome two types of proposals: (1) a single text such as a journal article, book chapter, or self-contained section of a book that focuses on a particular topic in a unified, coherent way; and (2) a group of smaller texts that are linked thematically, geographically, or otherwise.
The total word count of the introduction and translated text(s) should be between 8,000 and 10,000 words in English. One grant-in-aid of $1,000 will be paid to the translator(s) for copyright clearance and as honoraria. Proposals to translate one’s own work will not be considered.
SCMS members are invited submit proposals, prepared in accordance with the Chicago Style Manual, with the following:
Full bibliographical data of the original text(s).
The name and credentials of the translator(s).
A 500-word statement identifying the significance of the text(s) to be translated.
Information on the copyright status of the original(s).
A 500-word sample of the translation.
Proposals are due by March 1, 2018. The selection will be made by May 1, 2018, with manuscript delivery by October 15, 2018, and publication in 2020.
Submissions should be sent to:
Paul A. Schroeder Rodríguez, Chair, SCMS Translation/Publication Committee
