Amerikanische Fernsehserien der Gegenwart

»The Sopranos«, »Lost«, »The Wire«, »Mad Men«, »Breaking Bad« etc.: the contemporary American television series is marked by enormous diversity, distinctive aesthetics and remarkable audience success. But what is really »new » about the so-called »new« series? To what extent are they subordinate to specific cultural schemata or cultural scripts; and what cultural work do they perform when it comes to dealing with social changes and experiences of crisis? This anthology collects German and English-language articles from Media Studies and American Studies, which use selected examples to subject the format to reflections informed by Media Theory and Cultural Studies.

Christoph Ernst (Dr. phil.) unterrichtet Medienwissenschaft an der Universität Siegen. Heike Paul (Prof. Dr. phil.) ist Lehrstuhlinhaberin für Amerikanistik an der Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg.
