Description

Explore the complex relationship between modern media and ancient history with Locating Classical Receptions on Screen: Masks, Echoes, Shadows. Part of The New Antiquity series, this volume by Palgrave Macmillan examines how film and television engage with classical antiquity. By drawing on adaptation studies, comparative literature, and film theory, this collection offers a deep look at the nature of artistic reception. The book is organized into two distinct sections to guide your study. The first section, 'Beyond Fidelity', looks at idiosyncratic adaptations of ancient sources. The second section, 'Beyond Influence', examines modern works that attempt to adapt ancient themes or figures.
