How can I know that someone else is in pain, let alone have any real knowledge of what that pain feels like? Considering these questions, Wittgenstein answers them with breathtaking directness. Neither dismissing nor solving the problem, he tells us all we can know and all we need to know: “If I see someone writhing in pain with evident cause I do not think: all the same, his feelings are hidden from me” (1958: 223). I can doubt most things if I put my mind to it; and of course I cannot know precisely how another’s pain feels. But if I see a person who has been hit by a truck, it would be better to call for help than to consider the merits of philosophical scepticism. As Wittgenstein puts it in another passage, “Just try – in a real case – to doubt someone else’s fear or pain” (1958: 102). We cannot directly share it, but we know it when we see it. The case of trauma and of trauma texts nevertheless complicates the recognition of the other’s pain. Wittgenstein refers to suffering which is visible (“I see someone writhing in pain”) and has “evident cause.” Its source and its signs cannot be misinterpreted: the truck hit a person who is now crying in agony. The causes and symptoms of trauma, however, are less obviously manifest and more easily mistakable. This is suggested in one of the most frequently quoted passages in trauma studies, where Freud describes the survivor of a train crash in Moses and Monotheism:

The last fifteen years have seen dramatic changes in the UK within both the television industry and televisual storytelling techniques. Rapid technological changes have not only increased the variety of screen devices, they have also changed the boundaries of the industry itself as the internet opened up distribution avenues and alternatives for viewer attention in the form of social media. The traditional pillars of the UK television industry, the major broadcasters and content providers such as the BBC and ITV, have responded to these changes by expanding their focus away from the television set and onto newer, more portable screen devices. This shift has had consequences both for the kinds of narratives emerging from television and the experiences that such narratives craft for their audiences. Increasingly, transmedia storytelling (Jenkins, 2006) techniques are becoming ‘quotidian’ (Grainge and Johnson, 2015), part of television programming’s standard repertoire of narrative techniques. This article examines the relationship between industry strategy and transmedia storytelling techniques. By considering how television studies can look to its own past and re-appropriate foundational models to understand these strategies, this article examines how the changes to television’s narratives exist in a context of both change and continuity.
在过去的15年里，英国的电视行业和电视叙事技巧都发生了巨大的变化。快速的技术变革不仅增加了屏幕设备的种类，也改变了行业本身的界限，因为互联网以社交媒体的形式为观众的注意力开辟了分销渠道和选择。英国电视业的传统支柱，主要的广播公司和内容提供商，如BBC和ITV，已经通过将他们的重点从电视机扩展到更新，更便携的屏幕设备来应对这些变化。这种转变既影响了电视叙事的类型，也影响了这种叙事为观众精心打造的体验。越来越多的跨媒体叙事技术(Jenkins, 2006)正变得“司空见惯”(Grainge and Johnson, 2015)，成为电视节目标准叙事技巧的一部分。本文探讨了行业战略与跨媒体叙事技巧之间的关系。通过考虑电视研究如何审视自己的过去，并重新运用基础模型来理解这些策略，本文探讨了电视叙事的变化是如何在变化和连续性的背景下存在的。
