Journalism needs to reach out and engage

26. May 2021/in AAU News KuWi, AAU News Medien- und Kommunikationswissenschaft, ad astra 1/2021

“The Internet has given us new narrative stages.”

1. December 2020/in AAU News, AAU News KuWi, AAU News Medien- und Kommunikationswissenschaft, ForscherInnen der KUWI im Porträt, Research

Stories have been told throughout the existence of humankind. While audiences were somewhat limited until the 2000s, thanks to the Internet, virtually the whole world is now available to practically anyone as a potential listener. In her research, Christina Schachtner, professor emeritus at the Department of Media and Communication Studies at the University of Klagenfurt, is particularly interested in the “narrative subject”. Now, her book bearing the same title has been published as an open access book in the English language. In an interview with her, we discuss the tragedies and comedies that are performed in virtual space.
