How can “transmedia” history be put into practice from both theoretical and empirical perspectives? The international conference “Transmedia History”—organised by the Impresso project and the University of Lausanne’s History Department—will gather scholars from various backgrounds around this question to exchange views on new prospects opened by digitisation and digital tools to carry out transmedia research.

Conference program here

The conference is free of charge, but registration is required. The conference takes place in person in Lausanne. For those unable to attend, it will be possible to follow the conference online, but not to interact with participants on site.
