Companion to Literature and Film Hardcover - 2004 - 1st Edition
by Stam; Raengo
First line
The interdisciplinary study of novels and films has tended to run along two sides of a paradox.
From the rear cover
A Companion to Literature and Film provides state-of-the-art research on world literature, film, and the complex theoretical relationship between them. Twenty-five essays by international experts cover the most important topics in the study of literature and film adaptations.
Contributors explore, in a highly innovative and groundbreaking way, important topics in the field. These include:
- Key issues such as dialogism, hidden intertextuality, and adaptation as readings, critiques, and rewritings of source novels
- Cultural concerns including iconophobia and the word/image wars
- Theoretical issues such as "transcriture" and "intermediality"
- Genre topics including "hagiopic" and the apocalyptic film
- The relationship with other media, including photography and painting
- Consideration of format, including seriality, and diverse source material
- Thematic subjects such as hetero-masculinity in The Talented Mr Ripley and libertinage in the work of Eric Rohmer.
The combination of theory and sophisticated readings of novels and adaptations adds up to a tour de force that reshapes and reconfigures the very field of literature and film studies.
