商品描述

In our information age, deciding what sources and voices to trust is a pressing matter. There seems to be a surplus of both trust and distrust in and on platforms, both of which often amount to having your mindset remain the same. Can we move beyond this dichotomy toward new forms of intersubjective dialogue? This book revaluates the hermeneutic tradition for the digital context. Today, hermeneutics has migrated from a range of academic approaches into a plethora of practices in digital culture at large. We propose a 'scaled reading' of such practices: a reconfiguration of the hermeneutic circle, using different tools and techniques of reading. We demonstrate our digital-hermeneutic approach through case studies including toxic depression memes, the Johnny Depp/Amber Heard trial, and r/changemyview. We cover three dimensions of hermeneutic practice: suspicion, trust, and dialogue. This book is essential reading for (under)graduate students in digital humanities and literary studies.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

在我們的資訊時代中，決定要相信哪些來源和聲音是一個迫切的問題。在各種平台上，似乎存在著過多的信任和不信任，這兩者往往都導致思維方式保持不變。我們能否超越這種二分法，朝向新形式的主觀對話？本書重新評估了數位環境下的解釋學傳統。如今，解釋學已從一系列學術方法轉變為數位文化中的眾多實踐。我們提出了一種對這些實踐進行「尺度閱讀」的方法：重新配置解釋學循環，使用不同的閱讀工具和技巧。我們通過包括有毒抑鬱迷因、強尼·戴普/安柏·赫德審判和r/changemyview在內的案例研究來展示我們的數位解釋學方法。我們涵蓋了解釋學實踐的三個維度：懷疑、信任和對話。本書是數位人文學和文學研究的（在校）本科生必讀之選。

Lucie Chateau is a media scholar and digital culture researcher interested in meme aesthetics. She recently finished her PhD entitled Anxious Aesthetics: Memes and Alienation in Digital Capitalism, which investigated the subversive potential of aesthetics online. Her work has looked at a variety of meme genres such as depression memes, anti-capitalist memes and climate change memes, and argues we are witnessing the emergence of experimental aesthetic forms that negotiate new forms of representation under digital capitalism.
