E-book Dialogues between Media

I introduce this volume with distinct pleasure, since it marks the final step in a journey that started seven years ago, at the ICLA 2013 at the Sorbonne. The deci-sion to host the ICLA 2016 at the University of Vienna meant that, from 2013 to 2016, I had to face the biggest organizational challenge of my career, since I had the honour to support Achim Hölter, the chair …

E-book Samurai with Telephones: Anachronism in Japanese Literature

What is going on when a graphic novel has a twelfth-century samurai pick up a telephone to make a call, or a play has an ancient aristocrat teaching in a present-day schoolroom?

National borders are being closed, international travel is banned, people are encouraged—orsometimes forced with the threat of a fine—to seek shelter or stayhom…
