Book Presentation:
From »Avatar« to danced versions of »Romeo and Juliet«, from Bollywood films to »Star Wars Uncut«: This book investigates film remakes as well as forms of remaking in other media, such as ballet and internet fan art. The case studies introduce readers to a variety of texts and remaking practices from different cultural spheres. The essays also discuss forms of remaking in relation to neighbouring phenomena like the sequel, prequel and (re-)adaptation. »Remakes and Remaking« thus provides a necessary and topical addition to the recent conceptual scholarship on intermediality, transmediality and adaptation.

About the authors:
Rüdiger Heinze (Prof. Dr.) teaches American Literature and Culture at TU Braunschweig. His research focuses on transmedial storytelling, dystopian thinking, and literatures of migration.Lucia Krämer is Professor of British Studies at the University of Passau, Germany.
