Ciné-Tracts
was founded in 1977 and edited by Ron Burnett until it ceased
publication in late 1982. During that time, the journal published
seventeen issues (1,247 pages). Ciné-Tracts helped
to solidify the growing Film/Cultural Studies area by working
from an interdisciplinary orientation. A variety of people worked
for the Journal and contributed to it. These include, Martin Walsh,
Teresa de Lauretis, Stephen Heath, Raymond Williams, John Berger,
Hart Cohen, Peter Harcourt, Zuzana Pick, Martha Burnett, Saul
Landau, Bruce Elder, Peter Ohlin, Patricia Mellencamp and David
Bordwell. Ciné-Tracts had over two thousand subscribers
and Indiana University Press published a selection of essays from
the journal in 1991, under the title, Explorations in Film
Theory.
