Television Studies and Research on Series: Theory, history and present of (post-)televisual seriality

Editat de Denis Newiak, Dominik Maeder, Herbert Schwaab
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 aug 2024
Television series enjoy an unbroken - popular as well as scholarly - attention. It is surprising, however, that in works on seriality in media and cultural studies, approaches to television studies and television history still play a rather minor role. Yet seriality should always be thought of in terms of television, since the two have always been inextricably interwoven - economically, technically and aesthetically. But what else constitutes the serial in television and how does it change its face in times of digitalization, streaming and interactivity? Is it possible to think of a genuine serial theory of the televisual - and what, in turn, can be learned from this for seriality beyond television? The essays in this volume contribute to shedding new light on the serial as a core principle of television and to providing new impulses for a television theory of the serial on the basis of diverse examples from the current range of television series.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Television series enjoy an unbroken – popular as well as scholarly – attention. It is surprising, however, that in works on seriality in media and cultural studies, approaches to television studies and television history still play a rather minor role. Yet seriality must always be thought of in terms of television, since the two have always been indissolubly interwoven – economically, technically, and aesthetically. But what else constitutes the serial in television and how does it change its face in times of digitalization, streaming and interactivity? Is it possible to think of a genuine serial theory of the televisual – and what, in turn, can be learned from this for seriality beyond television? The essays in this volume shed new light on the serial as a core principle of television, thus providing new impulses for a television theory of the serial on the basis of examples from the current range of television series.

This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL. com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.
