Inhalt:
'Television Drama from Germany is an important piece of research into TV drama that combines industry access over several years with excellent knowledge of the field. Krauß offers a fascinating account of how the German TV drama ecosystem has developed in response to public subsidies, private channels and streaming, contributing invaluable insights for Screenwriting and TV scholars around the world.' Adam Ganz, Professor of Screenwriting, Royal Holloway, University of London, United Kingdom 'The book is well researched and offers invaluable insights by drawing on more than 30 interviews with practitioners from the German television industry. It is a great resource for students, scholars and professionals trying to understand transformative changes in European screen cultures.' Susanne Eichner, Professor of Analysis and Aesthetics of Audiovisual Media, Film University Babelsberg Konrad Wolf, Germany, and Affiliate Associate Professor of Media and Journalism Studies, Aarhus University, Denmark This open access book examines how TV professionals in Germany have negotiated “quality TV drama” from 2015 to the present. As practitioners have adapted quality TV – a term most strongly associated with US series – to their own national context, they have simultaneously dealt with shifts in screenwriting and storytelling as well as with broader transformations of the local television industry. As in other European countries, in Germany this has included a crucial upheaval: the emergence of various streaming services, which has multiplied the television market. As a systematic study of this changing fiction industry, Television Drama from Germany will be of great interest to both academics and practitioners working both within and outside the German-language television market. Florian Krauß is a lecturer at the University of Siegen, Germany, and a freelance script editor. He has held visiting scholar positions at the universities of Bologna, Copenhagen and Utrecht and served as visiting professor at Technische Universität Dresden, Germany, and as research associate at the Film University Babelsberg Konrad Wolf, Germany.
