Taylor & Francis Ltd Adaptations
Book SynopsisAdaptations considers the theoretical and practical difficulties surrounding the translation of a text into film, and the reverse process; the novelisation of films. Through three sets of case studies, the contributors examine the key debates surrounding adaptations: whether screen versions of literary classics can be faithful to the text; if something as capsulated as Jane Austens irony can even be captured on film; whether costume dramas always of their own time and do adaptations remake their parent text to reflect contemporary ideas and concerns.Tracing the complex alterations which texts experience between different media, Adaptations is a unique exploration of the relationship between text and film.Table of ContentsPart I Part I AN OVERVIEW; Chapter 1 ADAPTATIONS, ImeldaWhelehtm; Part II Part II FROM TEXT TO SCREEN; Chapter 2 INTRODUCTION, DeborahCartmell; Chapter 3 THE SHAKESPEARE ON SCREEN INDUSTRY, DeborahCartmell; Chapter 4 CONSERVATIVE AUSTEN, RADICAL AUSTEN, JulianNorth; Chapter 5 FROM EMMA TO CLUELESS, EstherSonnet; Chapter 6 IMAGINING THE PURITAN BODY, RogerBromley; Chapter 7 FOUR LITTLE WOMEN, PatKirkham, SarahWarren; Chapter 8 WILL HOLLYWOOD NEVER LEARN?, NicholasZurbrugg; Chapter 9 ADAPTING THE HOLOCAUST, MarkRawlinson; Chapter 10 SPEAKING OUT, DerekPaget; Part III Part III FROM SCREEN TO TEXT AND MULTIPLE ADAPTATIONS; Chapter 11 INTRODUCTION, DeborahCartmell; Chapter 12 ORLANDO, SharonOuditt; Chapter 13 JANE CAMPION AND THE LIMITS OF LITERARY CINEMA, KenGelder; Chapter 14 THE WRATH OF THE ORIGINAL CAST, Ina RaeHark; Chapter 15 BATMAN, WillBrooker; Chapter 16 ‘THOU ART TRANSLATED’, PaulWells; Chapter 17 ‘A DOGGY FAIRY TALE’, ImeldaWhelehan; BIBLIOGRAPHY INDEX;

Book SynopsisFrom Mildred Pierce and Brief Encounter to Raging Bull and In the Mood for Love, this lively and accessible collection explores film culture''s obsession with the past, offering searching and provocative analyses of a wide range of titles.Screening the Past engages with current debates about the role of cinema in mediating history through memory and nostalgia, suggesting that many films use strategies of memory to produce diverse forms of knowledge which challenge established ideas of history, and the traditional role of historians. Classic essays sit side by side with new research, contextualized by introductions which bring them up to date, and provide suggestions for further reading as the work of contemporary directors such as Martin Scorsese, Kathryn Bigelow, Todd Haynes and Wong Kar-wai is used to examine the different ways they deploy creative processes of memory.Pam Cook also investigates the recent history ofTrade Review'!!!!
