This book reflects recent scholarly and theoretical developments in media studies, or Medienwissenschaft. It focuses on linkages between North America and Germanspeaking Europe, and brings together and contextualizes contributions from a range of leading scholars. In addition to introducing Englishlanguage readers to some of the most prominent contemporary German media theorists and philosophers, including Claus Pias, Sybille Krmer and Rainer Leschke, the book shows how foundational North American contributions are themselves inspired and informed by continental sources. This book takes Harold Innis or Marshall McLuhan (and other members of the Toronto School) as central points of reference, and traces prospective and retrospective lines of influence in a cultural geography that is increasingly global in its scope. In so doing, the book also represents a new episode in the international reception and reinterpretation of the work of Innis and McLuhan, the two founders of the theoryand study of media.
