Literature, Film, and Their Hideous Progeny

Viac o knihe

Exploring the concept of adaptations as "hideous progeny," the book draws parallels to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, emphasizing how these reinterpretations can challenge our perceptions of familiar literary and cinematic works. It argues that what initially appears monstrous may reveal deeper insights into the cultures and contexts from which they emerge, inviting readers to reconsider their understanding of both the original texts and their adaptations.
