The book delves into the realm of radio and sound docufiction and docudrama, conducting a comprehensive comparative analysis of the British and Italian output from post-war years to the 2010s. From both a historical and formal perspective, it sheds light on a relatively overlooked area of study, offering a systematic survey of the form's development, current status, and future prospects. Additionally, it constructs robust analytical tools that can be employed to investigate individual productions.
Given the diverse range of docudramatic output in formats and quantity between the two countries, the book explores case studies from BBC Radio, renowned for its continued airing of a substantial number of programs featuring a wide array of formats and subgenres. On the other hand, it also examines Italian case studies from both independent bodies and the Radio RAI, whose docudramatic production has declined since the late 1980s.
The primary objective of the study is to elucidate how radio language, operating purely in an acoustic dimension, possesses the ability to reveal unexpected layers of truth, often complementary or even alternative to the documented truth of journalistic or scientific programs. By delving into this exploration, the book serves as a valuable resource for university students, scholars, researchers, and educators in the fields of media, media sociology, and history. It offers an in-depth analysis of an original and thought-provoking topic, making it a must-read for those seeking a deeper understanding of this evolving medium.
