The mediatization of the imaginary in the Kliemann Case
Keywords:
Mediatization; Imaginary; Kliemann Case.Abstract
In this article, result of our research carried out on the occasion of our doctoral thesis, we investigate how the processes that are established from the materialization of meaning in media devices reconfigure a certain class of meanings called the imaginary, understood as an excess of meaning that is establishes in the subjectivity of individuals. For this reason, we propose an overlap between the theories of the imaginary and the epistemology of mediatization. The research corpus is a set of statements, in newspapers, magazines, audio recordings and book-reports, about the events that occurred in the 1960s that became known as the Kliemann Case.
