With contributions from some of the finest film scholars in the world, Adaptations looks at what happens to popular texts when they are transformed into an entirely different medium, including novel and comic book to screen and an innovative look at screen to novel. Wide-ranging and innovative in its approach, Adaptations is a trenchant look at how a story changes -- successfully or not-- in all its mediums: novel, film, comic book, cartoon, and television.From Text to Screen, Screen to Text. Considers the theoretical and practical issues of adapting a text into a film, and the reverse. This book considers the theoretical and practical difficulties surrounding the translation of a text into a film, and also looks at the reverse process; the novelization of films like Jane Campion's The Piano, and the spin-off literature which collects around cult sci-fi programmes.
