NCGS endorses a broad definition of gender studies, and we welcome submissions that consider nineteenth-century illustration and gender and sexuality in conjunction with race, class, place and nationality. The submission deadline for complete articles is March 15, 2015 (earlier submission is encouraged). We hope to address a variety of possible topics including but not limited to:

Critical histories of illustrators marked by gender and sexuality
Depictions of gender, race, sexuality, and/or class in illustrated literary works
Depictions of gender, race, sexuality, and/or class in illustrated advertisements
Illustration and gender in periodical publications
Illustration and gender in the novel
Illustration and gender in poetry
Illustration and gender in the fin-de-siècle
