Article
The American series Kidding displays, across two seasons, a process of mourning.

The article p...

De forma complementaria a la fragmentación, existe una tendencia siempre presente hacia la agregación, que se presenta como una necesidad para productores y usuarios. La creación de guías oficiales, las reacciones de espectadores en Twitter o Facebook, las críticas en blogs, las infografías topográficas generadas por los usuarios… Todos estos son e...
Article
L’article examine les différentes typologies de montage dans deux séries pensées pour les nouveaux services télévisuels de diffusion en continu : Transparent (Jill Soloway, 2014-2019) et I Love Dick (Sarah Gubbins et Jill Soloway, 2016-2017). La posture queer permet de concentrer la multiplicité des options dans un parcours sériel (dans une logique...

La géolocalisation est un geste de plus en plus présent dans les pratiques des fans de séries télé. Les cartes nous donnent à voir un ensemble de données sur la réception de séries, mais sont aussi des éléments qui contribuent à complexifier la notion d’espace. Dans cette contribution, il sera question d’analyser le rôle des cartes numériques dans...
Chapter
Thanks to modern technology, we are now living in an age of multiplatform fictional worlds, as television, film, the Internet, graphic novels, toys and more facilitate the creation of diverse yet compact imaginary universes, which are often recognisable as brands and exhibit well-defined identities. This volume, situated at the cutting edge of medi...
Article
Humor cannot simply be reduced to distance or comic incongruity: it is rather a means of sharing – it may even be the means of network sharing. This paper examines the pragmatic effects of consumption of the media fragments circulating online, and it aims to understand their specificity while emphasizing their relational dimension. The analysis foc...

In the ­contemporary media sphere, a series is surrounded by various artifacts and fan appropriations whose place needs to be defined. The answer provided in this article is that narrative ­complexity, production, distribu...
Article
Cette contribution propose un modèle pour l’analyse de la tendance contemporaine consistant à refaire, en série, un film culte. L’analyse de la série Bates Motel (A&E, 2013–), choisie comme exemple pertinent, s’appuie sur l’insertion de la série dans une sphère de discours plus large représentée par l’univers de Psycho et ses multiples incarnations...

Romanzo Criminale is one of the few recent Italian media products that has emerged as a societal phenomenon and as a vehicle for the exportation of a national culture. It is a complex narrative which extends in time and space due to its various adaptations and intermedial crossovers. Following the path of complexity, drawing on Edgar Morin’s work,...
Thesis
Tout en se présentant comme la relecture d’un fait divers de l’histoire italienne récente, Romanzo Criminale est un récit qui se déploie par le biais de différents médias : un livre, un film, une série télévisée, ainsi qu’un certain nombre de produits dérivés. On trouve également, dans les espaces en ligne Internet, des déclinaisons de ces produits...
