Teleshakespeare has two goals: on the one hand, forming a guide about the most outstanding television series of recent years, some well known and others yet to be discovered, providing a set of brief, agile and lucid essays about twenty of these productions. On the other hand, this book articulates the first general reflection published in our country on this new visual and narrative phenomenon that has already transformed our definition of the audiovisual story, building, in addition, new models of viewing and interpretation that, thanks to the Internet, acquire an immediate global dimension.
