Beschreibung
“This thought-provoking book offers a refreshingly interdisciplinary approach to the study of the North, understood both as a conceptual and geographical area. Readers interested in multimodality and intermediality will find the case studies illuminating and inspiring. The book also crafts a compelling argument for building sturdier bridges across linguistics, art, communication, and media studies.”
–Ingrid de Saint-Georges, Associate Professor in Educational Science, Université de Luxembourg
“I find the whole concept highly original and fitting in contemporary medial debates. I also find the division between the two sections ingenious.”
–Niklas Salmose, Associate Professor of Literatures in English, Linnaeus University Center for Intermedial and Multimodal Studies, Växjö, Sweden
This book emphasizes humans interacting and participating in making meaning with multimodal resources and relating experience via intermedial means. The contributors explore diverse ways of mediating work, education, arts, and culture and ask how interactive participation involves experiences of the north either as a physical setting or a more abstract cultural condition that shapes the activity. The book engages with topical theoretical debate and puts novel methodology to test, providing essential reading for scholars and students in this rich and rapidly developing global field of research.

This book emphasizes humans interacting and participating in making meaning with multimodal resources and relating experience via intermedial means. The contributors explore diverse ways of mediating work, education, arts, and culture, and ask how interactive participation involves experiences of the north either as a physical setting or a more abstract cultural condition that shapes the activity. The ten chapters engage with topical theoretical debate and put novel methodology to test, providing essential reading for scholars and students in this rich and rapidly developing global field of research.
Emphasizes humans interacting and participating in making meaning with multimodal resources Engages with topical theoretical debate using novel methodologies Brings together interdisciplinary approaches from linguistics, art, communication, and media studies
