«Everything is intermedial». A Conversation with Lars Elleström
Abstract
Lars Elleström needs no introduction to intermediality and comparative literature scholars. Massimo Fusillo and Mattia Petricola had a conversation with him just a few weeks before the publication of his new, major theoretical work. The conversation discusses the evolution of Elleström’s theory over the last decade, his formation and influences, Peirce’s semiotics, the history of intermediality, and the notion of media literacy.
