This book examines truthfulness in transmedia practices, particularly in relation to scientific knowledge and the transmedial mediation of our perception of the world. In light of deepening environmental, political, and humanitarian crises, the role of transmedia storytelling in mainstream and social media is paramount. Harnessing such ideas as “ecomedia literacy”, the book looks at the development of new ecologies, which may be utopian or dystopian depending on our critical approach to texts. As such, it draws attention to how transmedia can be both potentially dangerous, but also instrumental in constructing positive attitudes, educating professionals, offering outlets to alternative sources of information and, by extension, promoting democracy.

A prominent keyword of the 21st century humanities, the concept of transmedia describes, in essence, an age-old phenomenon: texts tend to spread in a fragmented fashion, in various media, and be appropriated and further developed by multiple agents. However, the concept of transmedia and the practices it describes have become especially foregrounded with the rise of the new digital technologies and the spread of globalization. Transmedial practices more often than not span across languages and cultures; nevertheless, the ways in which transmediality intersects with translation is an aspect that has so far received limited attention in the respective academic fields. The aim of this volume is to introduce the concept of transmedia to translation studies and to highlight the centrality of translation processes in transmedial phenomena. Both in its narrower sense as interlingual transfer and in its broader sense as intersemiotic transposition, translation is of paramount importance in the study of transmedia.
