Journal Guide

Published since 1964, Winterthur Portfolio is an interdisciplinary journal committed to fostering knowledge of the American past by publishing articles on the arts in America and the historical context within which they developed. Arts is used in its broadest sense to include all the products of human ingenuity that satisfy functional, aesthetic, or symbolic needs. Preference is given to articles that are analytical rather than descriptive and to studies that integrate artifacts into their cultural framework.To encourage the application of new methods of investigation or analysis as well as new interpretations, contributions are invited from such diverse fields as art history, architectural history, decorative arts, material culture, American studies, literature, folk studies, cultural geography, ethnology, anthropology, archaeology, and social, economic, technological, and intellectual history. The range of acceptable subjects is suggested by, but not limited to, the following: artists and artisans, architecture and landscape design, technology and trade, fashion and folkways, style and taste, customs and habits, manners and rituals-all relating to how people make and use objects to create or sustain environments.

Women & Performance: a journal of feminist theory seeks scholarly essays on performance, dance, film, new media, and the performance of everyday life from interdisciplinary feminist perspectives. We encourage dialogues between varied fields of performance scholarship (i.e., performance studies; theatre, dance, and music history and criticism; ethnography; cinema and cultural studies; as well as queer and post-colonial theory), and explore critiques of race, ethnicity, class, sexuality, technology, and nation. The journal is a peer-reviewed, tri-annual publication with forthcoming special issues on topics as diverse as the role of women in the fluxus art movement, women in international politics, and transbiology. We encourage general submissions that foreground themes of gender and performance and proposals for special issues that address topics within feminism and performance studies. NEW SECTION We are pleased to introduce a new section, simply titled '&,' to the regular table of contents of Women & Performance. This section features a wide array of critical engagements that move beyond the invaluable, but nonetheless narrowly conceived, work of the 7,000-word, peer-reviewed, scholarly article. In '&,' you'll find artists' statements, polemics, review essays, performance texts, manifestoes, feminist and queer takes on current events and debates, and other modes of intellectual production that are too wily to conform to the standard model of academic publishing or that perform feminist theory along different lines of flight, at different speeds, in rogue forms. We are continuing to curate submissions for this section. If you have questions, or items you'd like us to consider, please contact managingeditor@womenandperformance.org.
