Adapting Nineteenth-Century France draws on six canonical novelists and the ways their works have been transformed in a variety of media to reconsider our approach to the study of adaptation. Kate Griffiths and Andrew Watts examine film, theater, television, radio, and print adaptations of the works of Balzac, Hugo, Flaubert, Zola, Maupassant, and Verne, and, in doing so, cast new light on their source texts and on notions of originality and authorial borrowing. This volume will serve as an invaluable reference for students and scholars of both film and multimedia studies and French literature.
