Kristyn Gorton, maîtresse de conférence au Département du théâtre, du film et de la télévision de l’Université de York et Joanne Garde-Hansen, professeure-assistante en culture, médias et communication à l’Université de Warwick ont publié en mars 2019 l’ouvrage Remembering British Television. Audience, Archive and Industry aux éditions British Film Institute.
Les deux chercheuses avaient co-publié en 2013 l’ouvrage Emotion Online: Theorising Affect on the Internet aux éditions Palgrave Macmillan.
Résumé:
« This original book asks how, in an age of convergence, when ‘television’ no longer means a box in the corner of the living room that we sit and watch together, do we remember television of the past? How do we gather and archive our memories? Kristyn Gordon and Joanne Garde-Hansen explore these questions through first person interviews with tv producers, curators and archivists, and case studies of popular television series and fan communities such as ‘Cold Feet’ and ‘Doctor Who’. Their discussion takes in museum exhibitions, popular televison nostalgia programming and ‘vintage’ tv websites. »
