Literature, Film, and Their Hideous Progeny

Viac o knihe

Exploring the concept of adaptations as 'hideous progeny,' this book draws parallels to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, suggesting that adaptations often challenge our perceptions of original literary and film works. It argues that what may initially appear monstrous can lead to a deeper understanding of the cultural contexts from which these adaptations emerge, prompting readers to reconsider their views on both the adaptations and the original narratives.
