Abstract

In order to examine and comprehend certain contemporary cultural products in all their complexity, it is fundamental that we adopt not only an intermedial approach, which allows to establish an evaluative comparison between two or more distinct media, but also a transmedial approach, which makes it possible to include as object of study the extensions in other media that supplement a main narrative or that mutually supplement each other. This essay proposes a discussion concerning the boundaries of transmediality and transmedial franchises within the broader field of intermediality.
