The New Brazilian Mediascape : Television Production in the Digital Streaming Age
How new media is ushering in a more diverse Brazilian national identityIn this book, Eli Carter explores the ways in which the movement away from historically popular telenovelas toward new television and internet series is creating dramatic shifts in how Brazil imagines itself as a nation, especially within the context of an increasingly connected global mediascape.For more than half a century, South America’s largest over-the-air network, TV Globo, produced long-form melodramatic serials that cultivated the notion of the urban, upper-middle-class white Brazilian.Carter looks at how the expansion of internet access, the popularity of web series, the rise of independent production companies, and new legislation not only challenged TV Globo’s market domination but also began to change the face of Brazil’s growing audiovisual landscape.Combining sociohistorical, economic, and legal contextualization with close readings of audiovisual productions, Carter argues that a fragmented media has opened the door to new voices and narratives that represent a more diverse Brazilian identity. A volume in the series Reframing Media, Technology, and Culture in Latin/o America, edited by Héctor Fernández L’Hoeste and Juan Carlos Rodríguez.

Sports Media Rights in the Age of Streaming and Platformisation
Against a backdrop of increased online distribution of media, this book provides an in-depth analysis of how the platformisation of television is both shaping and being shaped by the changing sports media market. Beginning by looking at the business models and strategies of the major stakeholders involved in the ‘sports broadcasting value chain’, the authors go on to focus on the challenges and opportunities posed by the growth of OTT delivery for the regulation of sports broadcasting in several key areas, including copyright law and piracy; competition issues linked to the buying, selling and distribution of premium sports content; and legislation designed to safeguard coverage of certain national and international sporting events for free-to-air television.Key areas of continuity, such as the persistence of national/regional markets; the importance attached to premium sports rights by rival delivery platforms as a source of ‘market power’; and the need to update key areas of policy and regulation in order to address challenges posed by the use of OTT delivery, are also discussed.This book makes use of a range of international and regional examples and case studies, not least the Olympic Games and the FIFA World Cup, and identifies different strategies employed in the buying, selling and distribution of sports rights for all major parties in the sports media value chain, including new entrant OTT players, traditional pay-TV operators, public service broadcasters, and a range of international sports organizations. Providing a complete assessment of the relevance and future effectiveness of key areas of policy and regulation in sports media distribution, this book is recommended reading for advanced students and researchers of Sports Media, Sports Management, and Media Industries.

The Age of Television
Having spent most of his career working with the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), Martin Esslin appraises American TV with the eyes of both a detached outsider and a concerned insider. "American popular culture," writes Esslin, "has become the popular culture of the world at large.American television is thus more than a purely social phenomenon.It fascinates and in some instances frightens the whole world."The Age of Television discusses television as an essentially dramatic form of communication, pointing to the strengths and weaknesses that spring from its character.It explores its impact on generations destined to grow up under its influence, with such questions as how TV turns reality into fiction, and fiction into reality.Esslin considers the long-term effects of television on our abilities to reason, to read, to create.He asks if current programming on American television constitutes what we want and deserve, and asks what we would change, if we could.These are but a handful of the questions Esslin probes in this penetrating analysis of contemporary television and its impact on our lives. In his new introduction, Esslin discusses changes in the media over the last two decades.He explores the increasing number of television stations available, the rise of "boutique" channels concentrating on news, sports, or film, and the relationship between television and other forms of electronic media such as video games and the Internet.Finally, he considers the effect of these developments on our ability to concentrate, our sensitivity to violence, and even our artistic taste.Most compelling of all is his final question: Can the Age of Television, with all its dangers, yet become a golden age of cultural growth?Martin Esslin is professor emeritus of drama at Stanford University.His numerous critical works include: Brecht-The Man and his Work, The Theatre of the Absurd, An Anatomy of Drama, and Artaud.He currently resides in London, England.

The Jazz Age : An Entertainment
If you can imagine William Blake playing Scrabble with Joni Mitchell, Catherine of Aragon booking into the Holiday Inn, or Cassius Clay meeting the apostle Paul on the road to Damascus, you're ready for the dreamworld created by Aidan Semmens in The Jazz Age.After five books of intense - some would say difficult - poetry, he has produced something more accessible, surprising, and fun.In a series of prose vignettes he casts an array of historical figures into times and places other than their own, playing on anachronism and dislocation to surreal, witty, frequently comic, occasionally poignant or disturbing effect.Each brief episode is crystalline, the whole piece theatrical, enjoyably absurd.You might identify a questioning of belief systems, of social hierarchy, of human individuality and inter-relationship - but essentially this is, as it is billed, entertainment.

Drawing on research into household media consumption, Hoover charts the way in which media and religion have continued to intermingle and collide in the cultural experience of media audiences.This second edition of Religion in the Media Age is essential reading for everyone interested in how today mass media relates to contemporary religious and spiritual life.
