This miscellaneous volume aims at offering a fresh and updated view of adaptation and transmedial practices. In the wake of Linda Hutcheon’s groundbreaking study, A Theory of Adaptation (2006), it discusses theories and exemplary case studies from different critical perspectives and points of view assessing past and present trends, and envisioning future prospects. The volume is divided in three macro-sections: Theories explores some methodological and theoretical facets of adaptation; Practices I includes analyses of literary, cinematographic and theatrical texts; Practices II discusses transmedial examples relating to arts. The book ends with the interview with the Czech-German artist Michael Bielický, a pioneer in the use of multiple media (especially digital ones).
