Author and Narrator: Transdisciplinary Contributions to a Narratological (Linguae & Litterae)
The distinction between author and narrator is one of the cornerstones of narrative theory. In the past two decades, however, scope, implications and consequences of this distinction have become the subjects of debate. This volume offers contributions to these debates from different vantage points: literary studies, linguistics, philosophy, and media studies. It thus manifests the status of narrative theory as a transdisciplinary project.
This volume brings together conceptualizations and empirical studies that explore the socio-cultural dimension of new media and its implications on learning in the 21st century classroom. The authors articulate their vision of new-media-enhanced learning at a global level. The high-level concept is then re-examined for different degrees of contextualization and localization, for example how a specific form of new media (e-reader) changes specific activities in different cultures.

Richard Bean’s fast and furious new play is an anarchic and foul-mouthed satire about the press, police and political establishment. An ambitious tabloid editor has little time for rules, while her proprietor relentlessly uses political influence to further his business and media interests. Great Britain enjoyed a sold-out 2014 run at the National Theatre before transferring to the West End.
