From The Apparently Simple Adaptation Of A Text Into Film, Theatre Or A New Literary Work, To The More Complex Appropriation Of Style Or Meaning, It Is Arguable That All Texts Are Somehow Connected To A Network Of Existing Texts And Art Forms.

Ranging Across Genres And Harnessing Concepts From Fields As Diverse As Musicology And The Natural Sciences, This Volume Brings Clarity To The Complex Debates Around Adaptation And Appropriation, Offering A Much-needed Resource For Those Studying Literature, Film, Media Or Culture. -- Publisher's Description Introduction: Going On (and On) -- Defining Terms.
