Cinematicity in Media History

In a world where change has become the only constant, how does the perpetually new relate to the old? How does cinema, itself once a new medium, relate both to previous or outmoded media and to what we now refer to as New Media? This collection examines these questions by focusing on the relations of cinema to other media.

"This collection ... [focuses] on the relations of cinema to other media, artworks and diverse forms of entertainment, demarcating their sometimes conjoined, sometimes separate, histories ... [and] seeks to make visible the complex ways in which media anticipate, interfere with and draw on one another, demonstrating how what we have called ''cinematicity'' makes itself felt in practices of seeing, reading, writing and thinking both before and after the ''birth'' of cinema"--Page 1.
