Abstract

"Intermedial Ecocriticism: The Climate Crisis Through Art and Media" by Jørgen Bruhn and Niklas Salmose is a comprehensive exploration of the intersection between media, communications, and ecological discourse. The book advocates for an intermedial approach to ecocriticism, emphasizing the importance of understanding how different forms of media interact and shape our understanding of environmental issues. The authors propose a methodology that combines intermediality with ecocriticism, examining how various media types blend and contrast to create new meanings in the context of ecological and environmental discourse. While the book provides valuable insights and case studies, it falls short in exploring the concept of transmediality and the audience experience in participatory arts practices.
