Focusing primarily on film and televisual texts from the ten years before and after the millennium, the contributors ask how recent films and television programs play with, imitate, subvert, mock, critique, and queer the romantic narrative conventions so common in Western culture.

This collection of essays illuminates the intersection of queer and adaptation. Both adaptation and queerness suffer from the stereotype of being secondary: to identify something as an adaptation is to recognize it in relation to something else that seems more original, more authentic. Similarly, to identify something as queer is to place it in relation to what is assumed to be “normal” or “straight.” This ground-breaking volume brings together fifteen original essays that critically challenge these assumptions about originality, authenticity, and value. The volume is organized in three parts: The essays in Part I examine what happens when an adaptation queers its source text and explore the role of the author/screenwriter/director in making those choices. The essays in Part II look at what happens when filmmakers push against boundaries of various kinds: time and space, texts and bodies, genres and formats. And the essays in Part III explore adaptations whose source texts cannot be easily pinned down, where there are multiple adaptations, and where the adaptation process itself is queer. The book includes discussion of a wide variety of texts, including opera, classic film, genre fiction, documentary, musicals, literary fiction, low-budget horror, camp classics, and experimental texts, providing a comprehensive and interdisciplinary introduction to the myriad ways in which queer and adaptation overlap.

This collection of essays brings together the study of cultural adaptations and environmental studies—thus the coined term “ecoadaptation”—to explore how elements of the natural world and the environment are represented and adapted in a variety of media. Emerging from the 2023 Literature and Film Association conference in Montana, this volume responds to the urgent call for a “green movement in adaptation studies,” as proposed by scholars like Kyle Meikle and Robert Geal. The essays delve into critical questions such as: What is the nature of adaptation? How do our stories about nature evolve across time and media? How do environmentally-focused adaptations influence public responses to climate change? Contributors examine how narratives about the natural world intersect with issues of race, gender, and class, and how non-narrative art forms replicate and adapt nature. This collection also explores the transformation and appropriation of Indigenous narratives about nature. This book is essential for scholars and students in ecocriticism, adaptation studies, literature, film and television studies, art history, and environmental literature. It offers a groundbreaking perspective on the intersection of adaptation and environmental studies, illustrating the evolving landscape of adaptation studies.
