About the Book

This collection brings together leading scholars across disciplines to reflect on the relationship between intermediality and multimodality and future directions for the contemporary mediascape, building on a 2022 Linnaeus University lecture series inspired by the work of the late Lars Elleström. The volume contributes to ongoing dialogues about media and society, the challenges and opportunities for academia to engage with developments in the evolving mediascape, and interdisciplinary pathways toward engaging with these questions. The book features essays based on live lectures conducted in 2022 honoring the legacy of Lars Elleström, following his untimely death in December 2021. Each chapter features an established figure in such fields as multimodality, intermediality, semiotics, narratology, art history, and adaptation studies. Each essay is prefaced with an introduction by the editors and bookended with a discussion transcribed from the original live presentations. A concluding chapter looks ahead to future directions, opening new lines of inquiry around the possibilities for intermediality and multimodality research toward continuing to build on Elleström’s seminal work in the field. This book will be of interest to scholars in multimodality, intermediality, and media and communication studies.
