Abstract

ABSTRACT In this paper, I argue that history is a large-scale transmedia project that is not understood as such, and this causes friction when history is engaged with through media in which historical research is not usually presented. To do this, I go through Henry Jenkins’ ten-step definition of transmedia and argue that history matches the definition very well. This transmedia discussion brings forth the concept of ‘world-building’, in which narrative is superseded by world-building as the all-encompassing concept and as the beginning point of analysis. In the analysis, history (as a product of historiography) is treated as phenomenon instead of a discipline and compared to other forms of transmedia world-building.
跨媒体历史
在本文中,我认为历史是一个大规模的跨媒体项目,但人们并不这样理解它,当历史通过通常不呈现历史研究的媒体参与时,这就造成了摩擦。为此,我回顾了Henry Jenkins关于跨媒体的十步定义,并认为历史与这一定义非常吻合。这种跨媒体讨论提出了“世界构建”的概念,在这个概念中,叙事被世界构建所取代,成为包罗万象的概念和分析的起点。在分析中,历史(作为史学的产物)被视为一种现象,而不是一门学科,并与其他形式的跨媒体世界构建相比较。
