The new issue of Gramma: Journal of Theory and Criticism, entitled “(Re-)mediating the Unconscious” and edited by Maria Poulaki and Adriano D’Aloia, is now available online: https://ejournals.lib.auth.gr/gramma/.
The articles of this issue illuminate the diverse ways in which media – ranging from social platforms and VR to narrative cinema and hybrid performance – mediate unconscious and preconscious processes. Moving beyond classical psychoanalytic frameworks, the contributions explore how media forms engage affective habits, perceptual thresholds, embodied metaphors, and immersive states, often operating below or outside conscious awareness. Together, they advance a multifaceted understanding of the unconscious not as a static repository of hidden content, but as a dynamic field shaped by cultural, technological, and sensory modulations – reconfigured through and within contemporary media experience.
