Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

This seminar explores the changing and fluid relationship between authors and consumers in a shifting media economy. As new media has enabled the increased circulation of content across the borders of genre, media, language, and geography, platforms have emerged through which consumers can increasingly participate in processes of media production – as Henry Jenkins argues: ‘[r]ather than talking about media producers and consumers as occupying separate roles, we might now see them as participants who interact with each other according to a new set of rules that none of us fully understands’ (2006: 3). If 'as we expand access to mass distribution via the Web, our understanding of what it means to be an author – and what kinds of authority should be ascribed to authors – necessarily shifts’ (Jenkins 2006: 179), this seminar will ask what happens to texts when consumers take ownership of their production, subvert their meanings, and question the power of authors and publishing houses to define these meanings. During the semester, we will work through a number of theoretical texts within this field, while considering how they can be applied to a variety of cultural case studies. Topics for discussion will include fan fiction, slash fiction, transmedia storytelling, and the role of review sites, forums, and blogs.
