Description:“At last! For years I have been looking for a book such as Teletext in Europe where insightful and learned scholars investigate the history of teletext, a medium most often overlooked by media research. In a number of fascinating and pioneering chapters the book succeeds in telling the history of teletext as a medium in its own right, and offers a review of teletext as a medium which paved the way to what became later the new, digital media such as the World Wide Web. Teletext in Europe is a most welcome contribution to the history of forgotten but important media.”Niels Brügger, Professor in Internet History, Aarhus University“Though seemingly unfashionable in a world of superfast broadband and social media apps, this volume shows teletext to be one of the hidden gems of the media sector. Hallvard Moe and Hilde Van den Bulck have skillfully brought together a range of contributions from prominent media scholars that shows us the essential – though until now largely forgotten – role that teletext has played in the development of audiovisual media in Europe and the broader lessons to be learned from it. Sharp, insightful and engaging throughout, this volume is required reading for anyone interested in understanding better issues related to choices about – and the application of – mass communication technologies and services.”Seamus Simpson, Professor of Media Policy, University of SalfordHallvard Moe is Professor of Media Studies at the University of Bergen.Hilde Van den Bulck is Professor of Communication Studies at the University of Antwerp.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
