CFP: Aesthetics and Popular Culture

The British Society of Aesthetics’ Postgraduate Journal of Aesthetics
http://www.british-aesthetics.org/pja.aspx

The PJA invites contributions from postgraduate students for its
Summer/August 2010 issue (vol. 7, no. 2). This will be a special,
themed issue of the journal on “Aesthetics and Popular Culture.”
Accepted articles will feature alongside an interview with Dr. Aaron
Meskin (Leeds) on popular culture, comics and computer games.

Authors are invited to interpret the theme, “Aesthetics and Popular
Culture”, broadly. Examples of suitable topics include, but are not
limited to:

Ÿ Issues in the philosophy of film, television, sport, comics,
computer games, non-classical genres of music (e.g., rock, hip-hop,
electronica), and other popular arts
Ÿ The high art/low art distinction
Ÿ Mass art
Ÿ Aesthetic snobbery
Ÿ The ethics of illegally sharing artworks (e.g., music and fiction)
via the internet
Ÿ The paradox and philosophy of horror
Ÿ Digital photography and CGI
Ÿ The identity or ontology of adaptations and remakes
Ÿ The legitimacy of certain popularist works/genres as artworks
Ÿ The ethical value and or harm of certain popularist works/genres
(e.g., computer games, hip-hop, horror/‘video-nasties’)

The PJA also welcomes papers that use popularist works/genres as a
spring-board from which to explore philosophical concepts, or that
discuss how those works/genres themselves might be taken to explore
philosophical concepts. Some examples of suitable topics include:

Ÿ Memento and the extended mind hypothesis
Ÿ The representation of agency and first-person experience in
fps computer games
Ÿ The ethics of 'on-line' inter-personal interaction in MMORPGs
Ÿ The portrayal of tele-transportation in works of science-fiction

Authors who are in doubt as to the suitability of their paper are
encouraged to email the PJA editor for advice at:
pgjeditor@british-aesthetics.org.

The PJA welcomes papers from diverse philosophical perspectives
(including analytic, continental and historical ones). Submissions
should be accessible, concise, and have recognisably philosophical
content that is sensitive to the existing literature on the paper's
topic. Submissions should be roughly 3,000 words in length, but not
longer than 3,500. On issues of formatting (referencing style, etc.)
authors should consult the current issue of the journal at:
http://www.british-aesthetics.org/pjacurrent.aspx.

Suitable papers will be reviewed by the journal’s editorial board, comprised of:
Dr. Aaron Meskin (Leeds)
Dr. Alex Neill (Southampton)
Dr. Ben Saunders (Oxford)
Dr. Kathleen Stock (Sussex)

Deadline: 1st August 2010. Papers should be submitted in Rich Text
Format (.rtf) via email to pgjeditor@british-aesthetics.org
