Founded in 1977, History of Photography is an international quarterly journal devoted to the history, practice and theory of photography in all its definitions - artistic, scientific, commercial, and domestic; in archives, art galleries, and museums; on the page, on the wall, or on the screen. The journal is inclusive and interdisciplinary, welcoming all scholarly approaches, whether historical, art historical, anthropological, sociological, archival or theoretical. It embraces global photographic history, ranging across all geographical and cultural contexts around the world.
The journal aims to provide a significant resource to diverse communities, including academics, curators, photographers, collectors, independent scholars, undergraduate and postgraduate students - indeed, anyone with an interest in the history and practice of photography. The journal encourages submissions from emerging scholars, while also seeking to publish work by established writers. We are proud of our reputation for rigorous and constructive reviewing. Over the past decades History of Photography has become an indispensable source of documentary texts, new and original scholarly articles, novel interpretations, and original thinking in this field.
