6-1 | Table des mati\u00e8res<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Message PDF<\/a><\/p>\n C<\/span>e num\u00e9ro du printemps 2015 marque un grand tournant pour Imaginations: revue d’\u00e9tudes interculturelles de l’image<\/em>; le premier num\u00e9ro de la revue a \u00e9t\u00e9 publi\u00e9 \u00e0 l’automne 2010 et nous f\u00eaterons bient\u00f4t les cinq ans de notre publication.<\/p>\n A l’origine, Imaginations<\/em> fut pens\u00e9e par les membres fondateurs qui composaient son comit\u00e9 \u00e9ditorial et travaillaient en \u00e9troite collaboration. Depuis que j\u2019ai pris les r\u00eanes \u00e0 l’automne 2011, alors que d’anciens membres nous quittaient et que d\u2019autres faisaient leur arriv\u00e9e, Imaginations<\/em> est rest\u00e9e fid\u00e8le \u00e0 cette tradition du travail collectif et politiquement engag\u00e9 de ses d\u00e9buts. Il ne fait aucun doute que si la revue s\u2019est \u00e9panouie consid\u00e9rablement depuis ses d\u00e9buts, c’est gr\u00e2ce au d\u00e9vouement et aux efforts du comit\u00e9 de r\u00e9daction de ces derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es: Carrie Smith-Prei, Andriko Lozowy, Daniel Laforest, et moi-m\u00eame. De m\u00eame, Elicitations<\/em>, la section consacr\u00e9e aux comptes rendus critiques, a su prosp\u00e9rer sous la houlette de Tara Milbrandt. Alors que nous nous appr\u00eatons \u00e0 tourner la page sur nos cinq premi\u00e8res ann\u00e9es d’existence, je souhaite exprimer ma plus profonde gratitude envers cette merveilleuse \u00e9quipe, compos\u00e9e de coll\u00e8gues et d’amis, qui a cr\u00e9\u00e9 Imaginations<\/em> \u00e0 partir de rien.<\/p>\n Notre revue entre dans une nouvelle \u00e8re en grande pompe. Imaginations<\/em> est l’heureuse b\u00e9n\u00e9ficiaire d’un financement du CRSH pour la p\u00e9riode 2014-2017. Cela nous a permis ces derniers mois de jouir d\u2019une libert\u00e9 certaine et d\u2019acc\u00e9der \u00e0 des ressources nouvelles afin de transformer non seulement la fa\u00e7ade d’Imaginations<\/em> mais aussi ses coulisses. Le comit\u00e9 de r\u00e9daction a r\u00e9cemment accueilli deux nouveaux membres: Brent Bellamy et Kay Rollans. Les lecteurs qui nous suivent depuis le d\u00e9but auront r\u00e9alis\u00e9 que ce num\u00e9ro a \u00e9t\u00e9 lanc\u00e9 sur un nouveau site web. Gr\u00e2ce au soutien technique et conceptuel de Nadine Adelaar et Jonathan Dyck respectivement, Brent Bellamy, notre nouvel \u00e9diteur web, a repens\u00e9 l\u2019esth\u00e9tique en ligne de notre revue. Mais ces changements vont au-del\u00e0 de l’aspect visuel et incluent aussi un mandat et un processus de publication clairement articul\u00e9s, disponibles en anglais et en fran\u00e7ais gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 la traduction d\u2019Aur\u00e9lie Lesueur.\u00a0 De m\u00eame, les changements apport\u00e9s \u00e0 la revue incluent des aspects techniques visant \u00e0 augmenter sa visibilit\u00e9 et son profil public. Ces derniers mois, Kay Rollans et moi avons travaill\u00e9 \u00e9troitement avec les biblioth\u00e8ques de l’Universit\u00e9 de l’Alberta et des organismes ind\u00e9pendants afin d’augmenter la pr\u00e9sence en ligne de la revue ainsi que son impact. Nous d\u00e9ployons ces efforts pour que les lecteurs puissent acc\u00e9der \u00e0 notre revue sans frais et pour que les auteurs, que nous publions gratuitement dans Imaginations<\/em>, re\u00e7oivent l’attention et la reconnaissance que leur travail m\u00e9rite.<\/p>\n De plus, comme les lecteurs l’auront remarqu\u00e9, cette \u00e9dition du printemps sur le th\u00e8me des films documentaires de l’Office National du Film du Canada est le premier num\u00e9ro d’Imaginations<\/em> en fran\u00e7ais. Nous sommes tr\u00e8s heureux d’avoir eu l’opportunit\u00e9 de travailler avec notre \u00e9ditrice invit\u00e9e, Mich\u00e8le Garneau de l’Universit\u00e9 de Montr\u00e9al. Le num\u00e9ro 6.1 marque une \u00e9tape importante pour Imaginations<\/em> dans son effort pour accueillir plus de travaux en langue fran\u00e7aise et un public francophone plus important. Un grand merci \u00e0 Mich\u00e8le Garneau et \u00e0 tous les auteurs publi\u00e9s dans ce num\u00e9ro pour leur contribution non seulement \u00e0 la revue mais aussi champ de la recherche en cin\u00e9ma canadien.<\/p>\n Je vous encourage tous non seulement \u00e0 lire ces excellents articles mais aussi \u00e0 prendre le temps de parcourir notre nouveau site web, y compris notre nouveau mandat avec la documentation qui s\u2019y attache, ainsi que notre appel \u00e0 contribution pour un num\u00e9ro sp\u00e9cial sur la visualit\u00e9 des sc\u00e8nes qui sera dirig\u00e9 par les professeurs William Straw (McGill) et Natalie Casemajor (Universit\u00e9 du Qu\u00e9bec \u00e0 Gatineau).<\/p>\n Imaginations<\/em> se r\u00e9jouit \u00e0 l\u2019avance pour les cinq ann\u00e9es \u00e0 venir et au-del\u00e0. Nous esp\u00e9rons assister \u00e0 une hausse dans le nombre de travaux cr\u00e9atifs et \u00e9rudits innovants, aussi bien en fran\u00e7ais qu’en anglais, sur divers sujets des cultures visuelles.<\/p>\n En terminant, j’aimerais une fois encore exprimer ma profonde gratitude \u00e0 toutes les personnes qui ont jou\u00e9 un r\u00f4le dans l’existence d’Imaginations<\/em> jusqu’\u00e0 aujourd’hui: notre comit\u00e9 de r\u00e9daction, nos \u00e9diteurs invit\u00e9s, pr\u00e9sent comme pass\u00e9s, nos artistes invit\u00e9s, les auteurs qui ont collabor\u00e9 avec nous et, bien \u00e9videmment, nos lecteurs.<\/p>\n Merci de continuer \u00e0 lire, suivre, partager et contribuer \u00e0 Imaginations<\/em>.<\/p>\n Sheena Wilson, PhD <\/div> T<\/span>his Spring 2015 issue marks a turning point in the trajectory of Imaginations Journal of Cross-Cultural Image Studies<\/em>; the journal\u2019s inaugural issue was launched in Fall\u00a0 2010 and we are now closing the chapter on the first five years of publication.<\/p>\n —<\/p>\n Imaginations <\/em>was initiated by a collective editorial board of founding members. While I took the helm in fall of 2011 as Editor-in-Chief, and new members came aboard as others stepped back, the managing editorial team at Imaginations<\/em> has continued to work collaboratively, harking back to its political foundations. There is no doubt that the journal has survived these first five years due entirely to the dedicated efforts of the managing editorial team of the last several years, namely Carrie Smith-Prei, Andriko Lozowy, Daniel Laforest and myself. Likewise, Elicitations, <\/em>our reviews section of the journal, has flourished under the editorship of Tara Milbrandt. As we round the corner on our first five years, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to this amazing team of colleagues and friends, who created Imaginations <\/em>from the ground up.<\/p>\n —<\/p>\n The journal is ushering in this next phase with a bang. Imaginations <\/em>is fortunate to be SSHRC-funded for the 2014-2017 cycle, which, over the last several months, has given us the resources and freedom to transform both the face of Imaginations <\/em>and behind the scenes. The managing editorial team has recently welcomed two new members: Brent Bellamy and Kay Rollans. Readers who have been with us since the beginning will notice that this issue is being launched on a new website; with the technical and design support of Nadine Adelaar and Jonathan Dyck respectively, Brent Bellamy, as our new Web Editor, has brought the journal a fresh online look.\u00a0 These changes exceed the visual to include a more clearly articulated mandate and publishing process\u2014all of which is available in both English and French thanks to the translation efforts of Aur\u00e9lie Lesueur. Likewise, the changes to the journal extend more broadly to include the technical aspects of raising the journal\u2019s publishing profile and visibility.\u00a0 Over the last several months, Kay Rollans and I have also been working with University of Alberta Libraries and independent contractors to augment the journal\u2019s online digital presence and impact factor. Ultimately, we are working to ensure that readers can freely find us online and that authors who publish with Imaginations<\/em>, without charge, receive the views and citation indexes their work merits.<\/p>\n —<\/p>\n Furthermore, as readers will note, this Spring issue, which focuses on National Film Board and Canadian documentary films, is Imaginations\u2019 first front-to-back French-language issue. We were very pleased to work closely with guest editor Mich\u00e8le Garneau, of the University of Montreal. Issue 6.1 marks a significant accomplishment for Imaginations<\/em> as we aim to increasingly attract and publish French-language content, and to reach a larger Francophone readership. Thank you to Mich\u00e8le Garneau and all the authors in this issue, for their important contribution to Canadian film scholarship and to the journal.<\/p>\n —<\/p>\n I encourage everyone to not only read this excellent set of articles, but to take the time to explore our website, including our newly articulated mandate and associated documentation and a new CFP for a special issue on the visuality of scenes being guest edited by professors William Straw (McGill) and Nathalie Casemajor (Universit\u00e9 du Qu\u00e9bec \u00e0 Gatineau). Imaginations <\/em>looks forward to the next five years and beyond, during which time we hope to see an upswing in numbers of innovative creative and scholarly submissions in English and French on a range of visual cultural topics that address the most pressing issues of our time.<\/p>\n —<\/p>\n In closing, I would again like to express my gratitude to everyone who has had a role to play in seeing Imaginations <\/em>through to this point. This includes our advisory editorial board, past guest editors, feature artists, all contributing authors and, of course, our readers.<\/p>\n —<\/p>\n Thank you for reading, following, sharing, and contributing to Imaginations.
