Call for Papers
Tasveerghar: A Digital Network of South Asian Popular Visual Culture (www.tasveerghar.net) is proud to launch our new project titled "Manly Matters: Iconographies of the Masculine in South Asian Visual Culture."
We invite proposals from scholars and researchers who wish to write a 5000-word "image essay" on a topic connected with this theme. Our own vision statement about this project is available at the link given at the bottom, but we are also open to other ideas and topics. Preference will be given in the selection of the final essays to those that pertain especially to the under-represented regions of South Asia in the study of visual culture (Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka), and to early career scholars and researchers. These image essays will be featured on the website for Tasveer Ghar, and our in-house designer Yousuf Saeed will work with each author to create the final product.
The deadline for submission of a 250-word abstract is January 15, 2017. We also request a sample portfolio of 5-10 images, and a timeline for submission. Authors of successful proposals will receive an honorarium of USD $250 (to be paid on the submission of the completed image essay), and access to Tasveerghar's database of digitized images from the Priya Paul Collection, New Delhi. The proposals can be sent by email to manlymatters@tasveergharindia.net
The project will be carried out under the joint leadership of Christiane Brosius, Sumathi Ramaswamy, and Yousuf Saeed, the co-founders and coordinators of Tasveer Ghar. It is funded by the Anneliese Maier Research Award granted in 2016 to Sumathi Ramaswamy by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, Germany.
For our vision statement, please visit http://tasveerghar.net/cmsdesk/essay/133/
We look forward to receiving an exciting proposal from you. Please forward this message to others who might be interested.
With many thanks,
Christiane Brosius, Sumathi Ramaswamy and Yousuf Saeed
