The Palgrave Handbook of Intermediality

Abstract

In this introductory chapter, the authors outline the background of the handbook and the sad reasons why Lars Elleström could not finalize the project that he had sketched. Following this, a few of the “slogans” of intermedial studies are briefly mentioned and discussed, before all chapters in the handbook receive an opening comment.
