Description The conference "Film adaptation: a dialogue among approaches" aims at creating a platform for discussion leading to productively interrogating the methodologies used in contemporary adaptation studies. The dialogue between different approaches will be directed towards possible interdisciplinary approaches in the humanities, connecting re-search on the poetics of film adaptation with the study of adaptation in cultural, social and economic frames as well as of the process of making an adaptation (medial culture, culture of production), analyses of adaptation as an intermedial phenomenon and approaches to adaptation which borrow methods from the field of translation theory. Possible interconnections between the comparative interpretations of literary and cinematic texts on the one hand and alternative approaches on the other hand will be considered. The aim of the conference is to determine to what extent these various methods can contribute to illuminating further discussion about literature on screen.
