Since the advent of digitization, the conceptual confusion surrounding the semantic galaxy that comprises the media and journalism universes has increased. Journalism across several media platforms provides rapidly expanding content and audience engagement that assist in enhancing the journalistic experience. Exploring Transmedia Journalism in the Digital Age provides emerging research on multimedia journalism across various platforms and formats using digital technologies. While highlighting topics, such as immersive journalism, nonfictional narratives, and design practice, this book explores the theoretical and critical approaches to journalism through the lens of various technologies and media platforms. This book is an important resource for scholars, graduate and undergraduate students, and media professionals seeking current research on media expansion and participatory journalism.
Recent years have seen a burgeoning interest in interactional humour from social and pragmatic perspectives, with fascinating results. Released more than a decade later than Norrick and Chiaro (2009) Humor in Interaction, The Pragmatics of Humour in Interactive Contexts gathers some of the most recent work on humour in interaction, with contributions taking (meta)pragmatic approaches to the analysis of various genres of interactive humour in both online and offline settings. This volume illustrates that a range of methodologies and perspectives can be applied to the study of such a complex phenomenon. These include analyses with a cognitive orientation and with multimodal approaches, work based on Relevance Theory, the General Theory of Verbal Humour, and Conversation Analysis, among others. In addition, all the authors represented here are recognised experts on the subject, and in most cases, are leading specialists in their respective fields. The book can be of use not only to scholars who study the linguistics of humour in interaction but also to students who wish to pursue research in the area.

The SAGE International Encyclopedia of Mass Media and Society discusses media around the world in their varied forms—newspapers, magazines, radio, television, film, books, music, websites, social media, mobile media—and describes the role of each in both mirroring and shaping society. This encyclopedia provides a thorough overview of media within social and cultural contexts, exploring the development of the mediated communication industry, mediated communication regulations, and societal interactions and effects. This reference work will look at issues such as free expression and government regulation of media; how people choose what media to watch, listen to, and read; and how the influence of those who control media organizations may be changing as new media empower previously unheard voices. The role of media in society will be explored from international, multidisciplinary perspectives via approximately 700 articles drawing on research from communication and media studies, sociology, anthropology, social psychology, politics, and business.

Produzir conhecimento é uma das atividades mais fascinantes do ser humano. É um processo que demanda imaginação, criatividade, teste, reflexão, combinação de diferentes inspirações, síntese e, quando tudo parece pronto, edição. É um ato de construção, verdadeiramente realizado, entre parceiros. O conjunto de textos reunidos neste volume traduz o complexo processo. Resume ou resulta de dissertações e teses, algumas ainda em desenvolvimento. Em outros casos, são pesquisas realizadas pelos professores, em conjunto com alunos, evidenciando, assim, um trabalho colegiado de pesquisadores. Por isso, os artigos que constituem o Conhecimento em Construção foram assinados, primeiro pelos alunos, depois pelos professores. Agora, esperamos que você, leitor, colabore com a etapa mais importante de toda esta elaboração: a leitura. Esperamos que você reflita e eventualmente encontre novos argumentos para transformar e reforçar convicções. Essa a importância da Comunicação Social na sociedade humana, reafirmada por todos nós.
