CFP: EA Vol. 2 No. 3

Deadline: August 31\, 2013

We are pleased to invite submissions for our Winter 2013 issue.

We welcome both full-length articles (4\,000-10\,000 words\, excluding endnotes) and Collisions (1\,000-2\,000 words). \; Collisions are brief (but well-written and thoughtful) responses to aesthetic experiences that raise philosophical questions for discussion\, but that do not necessarily enact the discussion in full. \; More information on Collisions is available at http://eventalaesthetics.net/for-authors/. \;

This issue will have two parts\, one dedicated to a specific theme\, and the other (&ldquo\;unthemed&rdquo\;) devoted to aesthetic\, philosophical questions of any kind. \; The Editors therefore seek submissions in two categories.

1. \; \; \; \; \; Aesthetics and philosophy (&ldquo\;unthemed&rdquo\;): This section will be devoted to philosophical matters pertaining to any aesthetic practice or experience\, including but not limited to art and everyday aesthetics.
2. \; \; \; \; \; Asceticism and Poverty: The themed section of this issue will focus on aesthetic practices that are necessitated\, constrained\, inspired\, or otherwise characterized by asceticism or poverty. \; Suggested topics include\, but are not limited to:

Aesthetic constraints born of financial ones
Ascetic practices in art\, e.g. the deliberate use of stillness\, sparseness\, the minimal
Aesthetic practices that are unique to those in financial poverty
Philosophies of art outreach
Art that addresses poverty in financial or other forms\, e.g. moral poverty
Poverty as an aesthetic and political condition
Aesthetic differences between asceticism and poverty
Aesthetic manifestations of the concepts of lack or dearth
Abject art
The aesthetics of failure

Both categories may be freely interpreted\, however all submissions must address philosophical matters. \;

*

Submissions are still open for our Fall 2013 issue

Described in our previous CFP\, the Fall issue will also feature 2 sections: aesthetics and philosophy (unthemed) and a themed section on Animals. \; Click here to see both CFPs. \; Note that the deadline for the Fall issue is July 15\, 2013.

*

Please send your submissions electronically in MS Word format (doc or docx)\, double-spaced in a legible font\, in accordance with The Chicago Manual of Style (endnotes). \; Be sure to accompany your submission with an abstract (max. 250 words)\, a bibliography\, and at least 5 keywords that may be used as search terms. \; Articles must be in English\, but we welcome either American or British spelling provided the submission remains consistent throughout. \; Please note that all submissions must be formatted for blind review. \;

Before submitting\, please review our submission requirements\, review procedures\, and copyright policy at http://eventalaesthetics.net/for-authors/. \; \;

Finally\, email your submission to eventalaesthetics &ndash\; at &ndash\; gmail &ndash\; dot &ndash\; com\, \;by \; August 31\, 2013. \; \; Make sure to include the word "submission" in the subject line of your email\, to ensure that it is not discarded by our spam filters.
