Hollywood entre piratería y suscripción
Hollywood y sus producciones tienen una presencia destacada en el panorama del entretenimiento audiovisual en México. No obstante, más allá del concepto general de "cine hollywoodense", son las franquicias y secuelas - por su familiaridad, continuidad narrativa y carga nostálgica - las que despiertan mayor interés entre los públicos mexicanos. Esta investigación parte del reconocimiento de un contexto nacional diverso, donde la amplitud y heterog…

Remaking Winnetou, reconfiguring German fantasies of Indianer and the Wild West in the Post-Reunification Era
This article argues that the 2016 television remake of Winnetou reconfigures German fantasies of Native Americans ( Indianer ) and the Wild West in the post-reunification era. The remake raises questions about the historically constructed meanings and the appropriateness of Winnetou in Germany today, presenting an occasion to probe processes of German nation building and their continued – and increasingly controversial – reliance on metaphorical …
Whatever Happened to Predictability?”
This article examines the Netflix revival of Full House, the family sitcom about three single men raising three girls that was part of the family-friendly “TGIF” (Thank Goodness It’s Funny) lineup ABC aired on Friday nights in the 1980s and 1990s. The 2016 release of Fuller House, I argue, was driven not only by the possibility to exploit an existing property with ongoing media and cultural presence in times of “peak TV” but also by Netflix’s str…

Each essay is concerned with a different case study and brings a distinct approach to the analysis of the trend on American network television and the online streaming service Netflix. Together, they analyze how revivals rely on past TV experiences to circulate …
Jewish immigrants as New World explorers and conquistadores
This article examines how Jewish immigrants of the so-called New Immigration (1880–1924) used the space of autobiography to symbolically “discover” and “possess” the New World and discusses this kind of narrative identity fashioning against the national debate over immigration restriction. Works such as Mary Antin’s The Promised Land (1912), Marcus E. Ravage’s An American in the Making (1917), Elizabeth Hasanovitz’s One of Them (1918), and Rose C…
Film Remakes, Adaptations and Fan Productions
