PALGRAVE STUDIES IN INTERMEDIALITY TRUTH CLAI...

This book offers an intermedial approach to truthful communication. Bringing together a wide
range of media types and interactions from a transmedial perspective  the volume maps out how
truth claims are made in different contexts  and how different media promise to create a
truthful perception of the social world. The flexible communicative possibilities of digital
technology have a significant impact on our perception of truth and truthfulness of
communication. Bot accounts  deep fake videos  or AI technology draw attention to how reliable
communication is destabilized and questioned. In this unstable climate  binaries such as true
false  authentic fake and fiction facts are difficult to apply. Instead  it is crucial to
investigate how media products construct truthfulness in different ways. The volume brings
together various media types and contexts such as press conferences  documentaries and
mockumentaries  images in magazines and on social media  horror movies  biopics  and
educational games and explores how truth claims  authenticity discourses  and knowledge
communication are established and how they collide  merge  or are confused. This is an open
access book.
