<p class="center"><strong>Directory of World Cinema: Korea</strong></p>
<p class="center"><strong>CALL FOR PAPERS</strong></p>
<p>The directory of world cinema aims to bring a new dimension to the
academic study of film. The directory is intended to play a part in the
distribution of academic output, by building a forum for the study of
film from a disciplined theoretical base.</p>
<p>I am delighted to be the editor for Intellect’s Directory of World
Cinema: Korea, having previously written reviews and essays for
Directory of World Cinema: Japan and Directory of World Cinema: America
Independent (both edited by John Berra).</p>
<p>The directory will be available both as hard copy and an online
resource, with the publication of the print volume scheduled for July
2011.</p>
<p>Please note that this is the first volume in what is an ongoing
project and I have had to make decisions about what would be the most
useful to include in this volume.</p>
<p>Detailed information can be found at:</p>
<p><a bitly="BITLY_PROCESSED" href="http://www.worldcinemadirectory.org/">http://www.worldcinemadirectory.org/</a></p>
<p>The volume will consist of both critical essays (1,500- 2,000 words)
and individual film reviews (700-800 words). Beginning with a series of
independent essays providing focus on key areas of Korean cinema, the
book moves into essays on four key South Korean directors before moving
into sections, divided by either genre or cinematic movement. For each
of these sections, there will be an introductory essay and between ten
and twenty reviews available of key films (the online database will be
more extensive than this).</p>
<p>While at the moment the book is predominantly concerned with South
Korean cinema, simply because it is more difficult to get hold of films
from North Korea in view of the current political situation, I
anticipate future volumes to have more extensive listings and reviews of
North Korean films.</p>
<p>My remit for this volume is simple. It should be informative,
educational and entertaining. It should become an indispensible and
comprehensive resource on Korean cinema. This volume has been shaped by
my struggle to find information for my forthcoming book on Korean horror
cinema. It is not that this information does not exist, as there are a
number of excellent books on Korean cinema, but it is the ease of having
access to information in one place which is offered by such a
directory.</p>
