Jillian St. Jacques – Adaptation Thories

"Since the 1990s, the practice of adaptation studies in the humanities has expanded beyond the boundaries of area studies. This innovative collection of essays challenges the critical boundaries of art history, visual and cultural studies, queer theory and film studies. Whether analyzing the theoretical misprision of Judith Butler's concept of performativity, the parasitic infestation of Panoram jukeboxes by the American porn industry, or the ontological slippage that takes place when we perform an act of homage, the essays and interviews in Adaptation Theories envision possibilities for considering the transdisciplinary potential of adaptation."
