The History of British Literature on Film, 1895-2015 is the only comprehensive narration of cinema's 100-year-old love affair with British literature. Unlike previous studies of literature and film, which tend to privilege particular authors such as Shakespeare and Jane Austen, or particular texts such as Frankenstein, or particular literary periods such as Medieval, this volume considers the multiple functions of filmed British literature as a cinematic subject in its own right-one reflecting the specific political and aesthetic priorities of different national and historical cinemas. In what ways has the British literary canon authorized and influenced the history and aesthetics of film, and in what ways has filmed British literature both affirmed and challenged the very idea of literary canonicity? Seeking to answer these and other key questions, this indispensable study shows how these adaptations emerged from and continue to shape the social, artistic, and commercial aspects of film history."--$cProvided by publisher. 410 4$aThe History of World Literatures on Film 606 $aBritish literature$xFilm adaptations 606 $aFilm adaptations 606 $aMotion pictures and literature 606 $aMotion pictures$xHistory 606 $2Film theory & criticism 615 0$aBritish literature$xFilm adaptations. 615 0$aFilm adaptations. 615 0$aMotion pictures and literature. 615 0$aMotion pictures$xHistory. 676 $a791.43/6 700 $aSemenza$b Gregory M.
