The Serial Podcast and Storytelling in the Digital Age, Hardback Book

The Serial Podcast and Storytelling in the Digital Age Hardback

Edited by Ellen McCracken

Part of the Routledge Focus on Digital Media and Culture series

Hardback

Description

This volume analyzes the Serial podcast, situating it in the trajectory of other popular crime narratives and contemporary cultural theory.

Contributors focus on topics such as the ethics of the use of fiction techniques in investigative journalism, the epistemological overlay of postmodern indeterminacy, and the audience’s prolific activity in social media, examining the competing narrative strategies of the narrators, characters, and the audience.

Other topics considered include the multiplication of narratives and the longing for closure, how our minds work as we experience true crime narratives, and what critical race theory can teach us about the program’s strategies.
