A Theory of Adaptation explores the continuous development of creative adaptation, and argues that the practice of adapting is central to the story-telling imagination. Linda Hutcheon develops a theory of adaptation through a range of media, from film and opera, to video games, pop music and theme parks, analysing the breadth, scope and creative possibilities within each.This new edition is supplemented by a new preface from the author, discussing both new adaptive forms/platforms and recent critical developments in the study of adaptation.　 It also features an illuminating new epilogue from Siobhan O'Flynn, focusing on adaptation in the context of digital media. She considers the impact of transmedia practices and properties on the form and practice of adaptation, as well as studying the extension of game narrative across media platforms, fan-based adaptation (from Twitter and Facebook to home movies), and the adaptation of books to digital formats.A Theory of Adaptation is the ideal guide to this ever evolving field of study and is essential reading for anyone interested in adaptation in the context of literary and media studies.

This volume comprises sixteen essays, preceded by an introductory chapter focusing on the diverse modalities of textual, and more widely, artistic transfer. Whereas the first Rewriting-Reprising volume (coord. by C. Maisonnat, J. Paccaud-Huguet & A. Ramel) underscored the crucial issue of origins, the second purports to address the specificities of hypertextual, and hyperartistic (Genette, 1982) practices. Its common denominator is therefore second degree literature and art. A first section, ...

Where is Adaptation? Mapping cultures, texts, and contexts explores the vast terrain of contemporary adaptation studies and offers a wide variety of answers to the title question in 24 chapters by 29 international practitioners and scholars of adaptation, both eminent and emerging. From insightful self-analyses by practitioners (a novelist, a film director, a comics artist) to analyses of adaptations of place, culture, and identity, the authors brought together in this collection represent a broad cross-section of current work in adaptation studies. From the development of technologies impacting film festivals, to the symbiotic potential of interweaving disability and adaptation studies, censorship, exploring the “glocal,” and an examination of the Association for Adaptation Studies at its 10th anniversary, the original contributions in this volume aim to trace the leading edges of this evolving field.

Adaptation in Contemporary Culture: Textual Infidelities seeks to reconfigure the ways in which adaptation is conceptualised by considering adaptation within an extended range of generic, critical and theoretical contexts. This collection explores literary, film, television and other visual texts both as origins and adaptations and offers new insights into the construction of genres, canons and classics. Chapters investigate both classic and contemporary texts by British and American authors, from Jane Austen, Edgar Allan Poe and Charles Dickens to Bret Easton Ellis, P.D James and Sarah Waters

Quelle sorte d’enfance Sherlock Holmes a-t-il eue ? Que devient vraiment Blanche Neige après son mariage avec le Prince Charmant ? Que se seraient dit Charles Bovary et M. de Rênal si leurs chemins s’étaient croisés ? Ces questions, il arrive que des écrivains s’essaient à y répondre dans des œuvres qui donnent un supplément d’existence à des personnages – les leurs ou ceux des autres.C’est à cette pratique, qu’on propose d’appeler transfictionnalité, que cet ouvrage est consacré. S’il s’interroge sur son étendue, s’il en répertorie les formes et les ramifications, c’est, chaque fois, pour examiner les enjeux d’un phénomène qui a quelque chose de proliférant. Un monde fictif est-il borné par le récit qui l’instaure ? Qu’advient-il de l’autorité d’un auteur sur « ses » personnages lorsque des continuateurs s’aventurent dans les interstices de leurs histoires, jettent sur eux un nouvel éclairage ou réinventent leurs destins ? Les récits transfictionnels ne répondent pas à ces questions mais, les faisant surgir, nous enjoignent de reconnaître à quel point l’exercice de la fiction nous confronte à des contradictions inextricables et fertiles.
