Follow Me. Entertainment, spettacolo, transmedialità

Abstract

This paper focuses on Amanda Lear’s artistic career between the late Seventies and the early Eighties. This period is analyzed through the investigation of the social and cultural context and the relation between disco music, the imaginary and the forms of entertainment. Amanda Lear’s figure has been analyzed by focusing on the creation of precise models of entertainment – between utopia and fascination –, that are connected to the coeval transmedia context.
