Book Description
“Film has kept turning to most of Shakespeare's work throughout the entire history of the medium. With a renewed boom of Shakespeare on screen in the 1990s, academic awareness of, and interest in this phenomenon has increased drastically and now faces an enormous range of different filmic references to Shakespeare and his work, all classified as 'Skakespearean film'. This book concentrates on one play, Richard III, and explores the possible variants and different types of Skakespearean film by surveying in what different ways and formats Richard III has appeared on screen. While the play has always enjoyed great popularity in performance, especially for its leading part, it is also very complex and has been considered difficult for its references to history, its political entanglements and its strong suggestions of a prevailing moral order of divine retribution. It is the objective of this study to find out how cinema and television as media designed for mass appeal deal with this play.“ -- author.

Shakespeare on screen, Richard III
Author: Nathalie Vienne-Guerrin
Publisher: Publication Univ Rouen Havre
ISBN: 9782877758390
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
This volume does not only provide the reader with diverging assessments of the Richard III films, but it also deploys a large array of methodologies used to study ‘Shakespeare on film’. What gives the volume its coherence is that it thoroughly interrogates what those films do with and to Shakespeare’s text and suggests that, at least for Shakespearean scholars, Shakespearean films are hybrid creatures. They are and are not films; they are and are not Shakespeare.Ce volume offre non seulement au lecteur un examen précis et pluriel des adaptations filmiques de Richard III mais il déploie tout l’éventail des méthodologies qui permettent d’étudier Shakespeare à l’écran. La cohérence de ce volume vient de ce qu’il propose des questionnements multiples sur ce que ces films font de Shakespeare et suggère que le film shakespearien est une créature hybride qui est et n’est pas un film, qui est et n’est pas Shakespeare.
