    Portal -- Doomsday dreaming -- The end of the media as we know it -- The appeal of the apocalypse -- Post-apocalypse -- The endings of "I Am Legend" -- "Battlestar Galactica's" post-9/11 apocalypse -- Worldbuilding and world destroying in "BioShock" and "The Last of Us" -- Convergence publishing and prestige niches -- Antichrist Obama and the doomsday preppers -- Paradigms -- The many deaths of "The Terminator" -- The many lives of "The Walking Dead" -- Epilogue : after the end. This book confronts the question of why our culture is so fascinated by the apocalypse. It ultimately argues that while many see the post-apocalyptic genre as reflective of contemporary fears, it has actually co-evolved with the transformations in our mediascape to become a perfect vehicle for transmedia storytelling. The post-apocalyptic offers audiences a portal to a fantasy world that is at once strange and familiar, offers a high degree of internal consistency and completeness, and allows for a diversity of stories by different creative teams in the same story world. With case studies of franchises such as The Walking Dead and The Terminator, Transmedia Storytelling and the Apocalypse offers analyses of how shifts in media industries and reception cultures have promoted a new kind of open, world-building narrative across film, television, video games, and print. For transmedia scholars and fans of the genre, this book shows how the end of the world is really just the beginning

    A comprehensive critical survey of the impact of 9/11 on Film, written by some of the foremost scholars in American cinemaAmerican Cinema in the Shadow of 9/11 is a ground-breaking collection of essays by some of the foremost scholars writing in the field of contemporary American film. Through a dynamic critical analysis of the defining films of the turbulent post-9/11 decade, the volume explores and interrogates the impact of 9/11 and the 'War on Terror' on American cinema and culture. In a vibrant discussion of films like American Sniper (2014), Zero Dark Thirty (2012), Spectre (2015), The Hateful Eight (2015), Lincoln (2012), The Mist (2007), Children of Men (2006), Edge of Tomorrow (2014) and Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015), noted authors Geoff King, Guy Westwell, John Shelton Lawrence, Ian Scott, Andrew Schopp, James Kendrick, Sean Redmond, Steffen Hantke and many others consider the power of popular film to function as a potent cultural artefact, able to both reflect the defining fears and anxieties of the tumultuous era, but also shape them in compelling and resonant ways.Key FeaturesFifteen original essays by some of the foremost scholars in American CinemaFeatures essays on the key films of the era, along with many that have previously been overlooked in scholarly literatureThe volume is critically informed but vibrant and engagingIncludes chapters by Geoff King, Guy Westwell, John Shelton Lawrence and Robert Jewett, Ian Scott, Andrew Schopp, James Kendrick, Sean Redmond, Steffen Hantke and many othersCase StudiesAmericanEast (Hesham Issawi, 2008) American Sniper (Clint Eastwood, 2014)Avengers: Age of Ultron (Joss Whedon, 2015)Casino Royale (Martin Campbell, 2006)Children of Men (Alfonso Cuarón, 2006) Django Unchained (Quentin Tarantino, 2012)Edge of Tomorrow (Doug Liman, 2014)Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close (Stephen Daldry, 2011)Halloween (John Carpenter, 1978)Halloween (Rob Zombie, 2007)Halloween II (Rob Zombie, 2009)The Hateful Eight (Quentin Tarantino, 2015)Inglourious Basterds (Quentin Tarantino, 2009)The Kingdom (Peter Berg, 2007)Lincoln (Steven Spielberg, 2012)Marvel Avengers Assemble (Joss Whedon, 2012) U.S Title The AvengersPearl Harbour (Michael Bay, 2001)The Reluctant Fundamentalist (Mira Nair, 2012)RoboCop (Paul Verhoeven, 1987)RoboCop (José Padilha, 2014)The Siege (Edward Zwick, 1998)Source Code (Duncan Jones, 2011)Spectre (Sam Mendes, 2015)Unstoppable (Tony Scott, 2011)The Walk (Robert Zemeckis, 2015)The War Within (Joseph Castrello, 2005)Zero Dark Thirty (Kathryn Bigelow, 2012)...

    Is there a non-Western form of tragedy? This volume argues that the Korean concept of han should be considered an Eastern tragic vision which is gaining prominence in the West through the critically acclaimed works of diasporic writers such as Nobel Prize-nominee Richard E. Kim, Theresa Hak Kyung Cha, and Chang-rae Lee. Through close readings of the works of leading Korean American authors, the book explicates the philosophical, historical, and postcolonial roots of 'han' and its distinctive aesthetics in contrast to classical Western tragedy. It then examines how specific authors deploy this
