CALL FOR PAPERS
THROUGH A LEGAL
LENS:
LAW, HISTORY
AND VISUAL CULTURE
26th May 2022 (virtual)
WORKSHOP THEME
Law is often seen, and indeed often presents itself, as
image-less, a text-based discourse. Perhaps for
this reason, the use of images in legal historical research is an undervalued
and under- researched – if fascinating – area.
This one-day conference aims to encourage the
asking of questions, to reflect the
growing interest and scholarship in
the interdisciplinary field of law, history and visual culture. The conference offers a forum
for discussion, debate and the presentation of research.
The organizers are keen to welcome scholars
from any stage in their career and, as the conference is held
online, submissions are invited
from all jurisdictions.
The conference will construe ‘visual culture’ widely, to
attract papers from a range of disciplines. With
a focus on images in and of law, subjects for papers may include, but are by no
means limited to:
· television, film and theatre,
· artworks (including sculpture), photography and graffiti,
· architecture and maps,
· legal artefacts
and objects,
· clothing and costume associated with the law.
SUBMISSION PROCESS AND ORGANISATION
Submit a
250 word abstract to: Visualimagesconference@northumbria.ac.uk. The deadline for submissions is the 1st February
2022.
The workshop is
organised by Victoria Barnes, Helen Rutherford, Clare Sandford-Couch and Sarah Wilson
