From »Avatar« to danced versions of »Romeo and Juliet«, from Bollywood films to »Star Wars Uncut«: This book investigates film remakes as well as forms of remaking in other media, such as ballet and internet fan art. The case studies introduce readers to a variety of texts and remaking practices from different cultural spheres. The essays also discuss forms of remaking in relation to neighbouring phenomena like the sequel, prequel and (re-)adaptation. »Remakes and Remaking« thus provides a necessary and topical addition to the recent conceptual scholarship on intermediality, transmediality and adaptation. »The true value of the volume lies in mapping out and problematizing the categories of remakes and in showing the complex ways in which remakes as cultural products are redefined to suit particular ideologies and economies. This expands existing discussions and highlights a number of questions that contemporary criticism will, in the long run, have to face.« Monika Pietrzak-Franger, Anglistik, 27/2 (2016) »Für Einsteiger in die Remake-Thematik durchaus zu empfehlen.« https://filmundbuch.wordpress.com, 15.04.2015 Besprochen in: http://www.hhprinzler.de, 12.06.2015 tv diskurs, 73 (2015), Lothar Mikos MEDIENwissenschaft, 1 (2016), Mirjam Kappes

This book introduces an archaeological approach to the study of media - one that sifts through the evidence to learn how media were written about, used, designed, preserved, and sometimes discarded. Edited by Erkki Huhtamo and Jussi Parikka, with contributions from internationally prominent scholars from Europe, North America, and Japan, the essays help us understand how the media that predate today's interactive, digital forms were in their time contested, adopted and embedded in the everyday. Providing a broad overview of the many historical and theoretical facets of Media Archaeology as an emerging field, the book encourages discussion by presenting a full range of different voices. By revisiting 'old' or even 'dead' media, it provides a richer horizon for understanding 'new' media in their complex and often contradictory roles in contemporary society and culture.
