Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Swedish institutions of higher education must promote widening participation. This goal is also expressed in policy documents at Lund University. To accomplish this, teachers at Lund University formed a group to strategically work towards student inclusion. This article reports on an interview study conducted by this group investigating students’ experiences and perceptions of entering education at two different programs. The theory of “the ideal student” was used to analyze the interview material. The result indicates the need for clarity and predictability in course layout and teaching.

Memory, Intermediality, Literature : Something to hold on to
- 2019
-
Bok (refereegranskat)abstract
- Memory, Intermediality, and Literature investigates how selected literary works use intermedial strategies to represent and perform cultural memory. Drawing on the theoretical perspectives of cultural memory studies, this engaging, reader-friendly monograph examines new materialism and intermediality studies, analyzying works by Alexander Kluge, W.G. Sebald, Jonathan Safran Foer, Anne Carson, Mette Hegnhøj, William Joyce, J.J. Abrams and Doug Dorst. The works emerge out of different traditions and genres, ranging from neo-avant-garde montages through photo-novels and book objects to apps and children’s stories.In this new monograph, Sara Tanderup Linkis presents an interdisciplinary and comparative approach, reading the works together, across genres and decades, and combining the perspectives of memory studies and materialist and media-oriented analysis. This approach makes it possible to argue that the works not only use intermedial strategies to represent memory, but also to remember literature, reflecting on the changing status and function of literature as a mediator of cultural memory in the age of new media. Thus, the works may be read as reactions to modern media culture, suggesting the ways in which literature and memory are affected by new media and technologies – photography and television as well as iPads and social media.

Storytel Poetics: Podcasts and Storytel Originals
- 2019
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Digital audiobooks experience growing popularity, and currently represents the fastest growing sector within contemporary publishing. This development has recently led publishers and distributors to develop content that is specifically targeted toward audio consumption. Reflecting the contemporary significance and popularity of podcasts, these new audiobooks draws on the narrative logics and aesthetics of podcasting, as they seek to attract podcast users as well as a traditional literary audience. The presentation will examine this connection between podcasts and audiobooks by focusing on the so-called Storytel Originals, serialized narratives produced specifically for audio consumption by the Swedish producer and distributor of audiobooks, Storytel. How do the Originals series navigate between traditional literary genres and the narrative aesthetics and usage associated with podcasting? What do these audiobook series and podcasts have in common, and how do they differ from each other? Drawing on theoretical work on podcasting, audiobooks and seriality by e.g. Richard Berry, Matthew Rubery and Frank Kelleter, we analyse two Originals series, Virus (2016-2018) and the true crime story, Golden State Killer (2019), comparing the serial narrative structure and usage of these series to that of contemporary podcasts such as Sarah Koenic’s Serial. Analysing similarities and differences between audiobooks and podcasts and focusing on uses of the serial format allow us to trace a connection to the traditional narrative and commercial logics of seriality that characterized, e.g. Victorian feuilleton novels and early radio drama, while also emphasizing how both formats, digital audiobooks and podcasting, develop new approaches to serial audio storytelling. In this way, the presentation will not only examine a new phenomenon in the audiobook sector, but also shed new light on broader developments in the digital distribution and consumption of audio narratives today.

Lyst(op)læsning : Forførende højtlæsning og bogromantik med Jane Austen og Blanche Stories

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Following recent years’ “audiobook boom”, audio fiction apps have emerged that focus on romantic and erotic content. The article examines how the audio format and its associated uses shape or reshape existing concepts of romantic fiction. Focusing on the case of the app Blanche Stories, the article analyzes new romantic texts, written for the app, along with older texts, love letters, and excerpts from classics, which are adapted into sound. Drawing on theories on “bookishness” (Pressman), along with established work in audiobook and romance studies, it is argued that a “romantization” of literary tradition and book culture takes place in the app: partly through the way book culture is represented in the new romantic texts, and partly through the selection and adaptation of older texts in the app. At the same time, the audio format is also used in the app to reinterpret the texts and adapt them to modern uses of audiobooks, following the app’s goal of providing a “15 minutes of pleasure” in everyday life.

Performing E-bookness : Remediation and Metamediality in the Ebook Edition of Mark Z. Danielewski's The Fifty Year Sword

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Mark. Z Danielewski is known for his experiments with the aesthetics of print in works such as House of Leaves and The Familiar. The chapter examines what happens when the experimental book object is digitalized, focusing on the enhanced e-book version of Danielewski’s The Fifty Year Sword. Drawing on theories on remediation (Bolter and Grusin), bookishness (Pressman, Hayles) and digital materiality (Kirschenbaum), I examine how the e-book transforms the work, adding sound effects, animation and music to the literary experience. Thus, I examine how the enhanced e-book balances between embracing the digital format and remediating an aesthetics of bookishness.

Reading Patterns : Analyzing the Usage of Born-Audio Literary Narratives
- 2021
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The increasing popularity of digital audiobooks significantly affects contemporary reading culture. As noted by Birgitte Stougaard Pedersen and Iben Have (2015), digital audiobooks make it possible to consume literature anywhere and always, through a smartphone and earphones. The audiobook thus fit well into modern everyday life, and digital audiobooks make up one of the fastest growing fields in contemporary publishing. The paper discusses how this development affects modes and concepts of reading while also making it possible to study reading patterns and processes in new ways. We complicate an established idea of audiobooks as promoting more distracted or passive reading than print books, drawing on theories by Lutz Koepnick, and Matthew Rubery. In this context, we also address the concept of distant reading and computer-assisted methods which have been discussed within Digital Humanities. Specifically, we focus on the usage of born-audio texts: that is, literary narratives produced specifically for audio consumption. Focusing on this emerging genre makes it possible to study the influence of the audiobook format on literary texts: their structure and language, as well as on listening patterns: how readers typically listen, for how long, and when they stop listening etc. Thus, we combine the theoretical discussion of audiobook consumption with quantitative analysis of data provided by the audiobook subscription service Storytel on the usage of born-audio narratives. This allows us to examine the effects of the born-audio format on modes of reading, or listening, while we also contribute to the ongoing exploration of how digital methods can be used to study literary consumption.
