Inhalt:
In recent years, the scholarly attention to print culture, the history of the book, and digital humanities has created a new awareness of the importance of serialized media in transnational contexts. Under the umbrella term "periodical studies," scholars began to focus on newspapers, magazines, journals, and other forms of serialized mass communication circulating in global media environments. Meanwhile, periodical studies has turned into an autonomous field of research setting into dialogue literary and cultural studies, material and visual/design studies as well as media and communication studies, linguistics, and translation studies. Periodicals play a key role in addressing diverse audiences and their hunger for life-/mindstyles, news, and information. Given the periodicals' multimodal nature resulting from editorial, content, and design strategies, business models, advertisement, distribution, subscription, etc., this graduate seminar will raise questions about how to read magazines. We will focus on transnational (lifestyle) magazines. Our discussion will involve a number of activities inside and outside the classroom to develop methods for a close reading of magazines.
