Digital Storytelling, Mediatized Stories: Self-representations in New Media (Digital Formations)
«In this insightful and original volume, international scholars draw on an exciting range of perspectives to understand the transformative potential of digital media for human expression and recognition of others.» (Sonia Livingstone, Professor of Social Psychology in the Department of Media and Communications, London School of Economics and Political Science)«‘Digital Storytelling, Mediatized Stories’ defines an important new field in media studies. Contributions address current discussions concerning media and identity, the democratizing potential of new media, as well as significant debates regarding how we best theorize ‘media’ and ‘mediatization’. This is a ‘must-read’ collection for anyone interested in global perspectives on narrative, new media, and the larger impacts and potentials of digital technologies on both our individual and collective lives as de facto global citizens.» (Charles Ess, Professor of Philosophy and Religion, Drury University)
