It explores a strikingly diverse range of types of transmission, including the circulation of money, the translation of languages, angelic visitations, the spread of infectious disease, the transferences that occur in psychoanalysis, the act of bearing witness, and the development of cartography. In each case, Sybille Krämer uses the insight offered by the metaphor of the messenger to help explain and explore the field of media philosophy and the ways that mediation shapes our understanding of the world around us. 410 0$aRecursions: theories of media, materiality, and cultural techniques. 606 $aMetaphysics 606 $aCommunication$xPhilosophy 606 $aMass media$xPhilosophy 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aMedia and Communications 610 $aEpistemology 610 $aGod 610 $aInfection 610 $aMediation 610 $aPsychoanalysis 610 $aTransference 615 0$aMetaphysics. 615 0$aCommunication$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aMass media$xPhilosophy. 676 $a302.23 700 $aKra?mer$b Sybille$0985931 702 $aEnns$b Anthony 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910213855203321 996 $aMedium, Messenger, Transmission$92253509 997 $aUNINA
