Description de l'ouvrage:
Contributions by Zoe Bursztajn-Illingworth, Marc DiPaolo, Emine Akkülah Doğan, Caroline Eades, Noelle Hedgcock, Tina Olsin Lent, Rashmila Maiti, Allen H. Redmon, Jack Ryan, Larry T. Shillock, Richard Vela, and Geoffrey Wilson

In Next Generation Adaptation: Spectatorship and Process, editor Allen H. Redmon brings together eleven essays from a range of voices in adaptation studies. This anthology explores the political and ethical contexts of specific adaptations and, by extension, the act of adaptation itself. Grounded in questions of gender, genre, and race, these investigations focus on the ways attention to these categories renegotiates the rules of power, privilege, and principle that shape the contexts that seemingly produce and reproduce them.

Contributors to the volume examine such adaptations as Quentin Tarantino’s Death Proof, Jacques Tourneur’s Out of the Past, Taylor Sheridan’s Sicario and Sicario: Day of the Soldado, Jean-Jacques Annaud’s Wolf Totem, Spike Lee’s He’s Got Game, and Jim Jarmusch’s Paterson. Each chapter considers the expansive dialogue adaptations accelerate when they realize their capacity to bring together two or more texts, two or more peoples, two or more ideologies without allowing one expression to erase another. Building on the growing trends in adaptation studies, these essays explore the ways filmic texts experienced as adaptations highlight ethical or political concerns and argue that spectators are empowered to explore implications being raised by the adaptations.

À propos de l'auteur :
Allen H. Redmon is professor of English and film studies at Texas A&M University-Central Texas. He is author of Constructing the Coens: From "Blood Simple" to "Inside Llewyn Davis" and coeditor of Clint Eastwood's Cinema of Trauma: Essays on PTSD in the Director's Films. Redmon serves as president of the Literature/Film Association.

Revue de Presse:
"Instead of simply tracing aesthetic and perhaps moral-ethical mutations across discrete acts of adaptation, the essays in Next Generation Adaptation: Spectatorship and Process attempt to account for the complex force relations that shape different authorial moves. Film scholars and adaptation theorists alike will find ample fodder here. Redmon’s collection adds much-anticipated momentum to the praxis of contemporary adaptation studies, particularly as this concerns new approaches to screen adaptation. "
- Jillian St. Jacques, editor of Adaptation Theories

"This diverse collection of essays is a valuable contribution to the growing field of adaptation studies since this attempt of the 'next generation' to look at the next generation of narratives we are familiar with is governed by the intricate and intriguing link between aesthetics, ethics, and politics."
- Richa Chilana, University of Delhi, Journal of Popular Culture
