Description</b><br>
The constant exposure to mediatic products plays a major role in forming people's views of the world (Bednarek 2018: 5). As a consequence, media technologies have become the main platforms for "the construction and reproduction of social discourses" (Balirano
2014: 45). Any form of televised or cinematic production can open up a <i>discursive space
</i>(Johnson & Milani 2010: 9) in which identity ideologies are discussed, represented, and popularized. Different social actors can thus rely on these spaces to put forward discourses of inclusion and legitimation, as well as to manipulate or shut down these
discourses altogether, labeling them as <i>not </i>legitimate (Zottola, 2022).<br>
Against this backdrop, this Special Issue aims at exploring the linguistic, discursive, and multimodal resources deployed for the representation of identities and diversity in audiovisual products. Contributions will be grounded both in the framework of AVT
(audiovisual translation) and/or Discourse Analysis, with a special emphasis on the investigation of audiovisual artifacts as a means to construe, portray and popularize identity ideologies and/or their production and distribution processes.<br>
Articles can cover the following topics:<br>
- Audiovisual translation as vehicle for/subverter of identity representation.<br>
- Representing identity and diversity in dubbing, subtitling and fun subbing.<br>
- Representing identity and diversity in screen adaptations.<br>
- Representing and popularizing identity and diversity in audiovisual products.<br>
