| Summary: | The Routledge Companion to Global Literary Adaptation in the Twenty-First Century offers new perspectives on contemporary literary adaptation as a dynamically global field. Featuring contributions from an international team of established and emerging scholars, this volume considers literary adaptation to be a complex global network of influences, appropriations and audiences across a diversity of media. It offers site-specific case studies that situate literary adaptation within global market forces while challenging the homogenizing effects of globalization on local literatures and adaptation practices. The collection also provides a multidisciplinary and transnational discussion around a wide array of topics in literary adaptation in a global context such as soft power, decolonization, global justice, the posthuman, ecocriticism and forms of activism. This Companion provides scholars, researchers and students with a survey of key methodologies, current debates and ideologies emerging from a new and exciting phase in literary adaptation. |
