I am seeking papers for a possible publication of collected essays addressing
various concerns of film adaptation. Possible topics include but are in no way
limited to the following. What problems arise when adapting a work of
literature to a screenplay? How do various adaptations of the same work use
the primary text differently in their adaptations? What role does fidelity play in
screenplay adaptation? What problems in auteur/authorship arise in screenplay
adaptation? What role does intended audience play in screenplay adaptation?
Essays should be between 6500 and 8000 words, including citations.
Please send proposals or completed essays accompanied by abstracts of no
longer than 300 words by April 3, 2006 to [log in to unmask]
Please include name, department affiliation, and contact information.
