There are many ways to map the intersection between media and subjectivity.1 On the one hand, contemporary media culture offers a plethora of media contexts in which subjectivity can be represented, ranging from literary texts and comics via lms and television series to various kinds of interactive and participatory media.2 On the other hand, the term “subjectivity” may be used to refer to a number of different and at least partially contradictory concepts, depending on the research context within which the reference in question occurs.3 In the context of the present volume, however, we will pursue a comparatively narrow focus on everyday conceptualizations of “what subjectivity is” that is closely connected to research being done in various strands of the philosophy of mind. Among other things, such an approach allows us to emphasize the close interrelation between the question of how recipients comprehend subjectivity as part of their everyday world knowledge and the question of how media represent subjectivity within the limitations and affordances that their specic mediality provides. |
