In this volume, Lucyna Harmon compares the episodes that constitute the British TV series Agatha Christie's Poirot with David Suchet with their precursor texts, with the aim of establishing most salient changes between both. These changes are grouped by underlying patterns into twenty-three categories. Their list includes activation, anticipation, amelioration, bohemisation, co-option, depopulation, entertainisation, glorification, human softening, importation, marital reduction, melodramatisation, multiplication, pejoration, political correction, political redirection, politicisation, reviving, romanticisation, social adjustment, social alerting, social correction, teaming and thrill intensification. These categories are postulated as adaptation strategies, suitable as a research tool in adaptation studies.
Im Mittelpunkt des vorliegenden Bandes steht das höchst aktuelle und mit dem Zeitgeist räsonierende Problem der Grenze, das grundsätzlich aus einer literatur- und kulturwissenschaftlichen Perspektive untersucht wird. Anvisiert werden hier einerseits literarische Manifestationen und Konzeptualisierungen der Grenze als eine umfassende Denkfigur und Reflexionskategorie, andererseits Phänomene, Diskurse und Narrative, die sich als saliente Reflexe unseres durch diverse Zwänge, Limitierungen und Umzäunungen überschatteten Zeitalters offenbaren. Die Untersuchungen reichen dabei von den antiken Verhandlungen des Grenzmotivs, über romantische Begrenzungs- und Entgrenzungspoetiken, bis hin zu der jüngsten deutschsprachigen Literaturproduktion.This volume focuses on the highly topical problem of the border, which resonates with the zeitgeist and is investigated principally from a perspective of both literary and cultural studies. On the one hand, literary manifestations and conceptualizations of the border as a wide-ranging figure of thought and category of reflection are targeted here. On the other hand, phenomena, discourses, and narratives are explored that reveal themselves as salient reflections of our age overshadowed by various constraints, limitations, and enclosures. The studies extends from the ancient explorations of the border motif, through Romantic poetics of restriction and dissolution, to the most recent German-language literary production.
