Media in general and narrative media in particular have the
potential to represent not only a variety of both possible and
actual worlds but also the perception and consciousness of
characters in these worlds. Hence, media can be understood as
"qualia machines," as technologies that allow for the production of
subjective experiences within the affordances and limitations posed
by the conventions of their specific mediality. This edited
collection examines the transmedial as well as the medium-specific
strategies employed by the verbal representations characteristic
for literary texts, the verbal-pictorial representations
characteristic for comics, the audiovisual representations
characteristic for films, and the interactive representations
characteristic for video games. Combining theoretical perspectives
from analytic philosophy, cognitive theory, and narratology with
approaches from phenomenology, psychosemiotics, and social
semiotics, the contributions collected in this volume provide a
state-of-the-art map of current research on a wide variety of ways
in which subjectivity can be represented across conventionally
distinct media.
