Produktbeschreibung

In The Art of Adapting Victorian Literature, 1848-1920, Karen E. Laird alternates between readings of nineteenth-century stage and twentieth-century silent film adaptations to demonstrate the working practices of the first adapters of Victorian fiction. Focusing on Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre, Charles Dickens's David Copperfield, and Wilkie Collins's The Woman in White, Laird charts a new cultural history of literary adaptation as it developed throughout the long nineteenth-century.
