The main objective of the following article is to map out the analytical field of transmedia and genre studies. There are at least three reasons for doing so. Firstly, a number of contemporary works of culture transcend the traditional genre distinctions and make use of heterogeneous genres, media and modalities in their semiotic apparatus. Secondly, genres practiced heretofore have been questioned and violated – not only in literary studies but also in the humanities as a whole. Finally, transmediality requires the utilization of methodologies derived from diverse disciplines and fields.
