Description

This scholarly volume examines how film and television engage with classical antiquity, offering fresh perspectives on artistic reception and adaptation. The collection brings together essays that challenge traditional approaches to classical adaptation, drawing on established frameworks from adaptation studies, comparative literature, and film criticism. Organised into two sections, 'Beyond Fidelity' addresses unconventional interpretations of ancient sources, whilst 'Beyond Influence' explores contemporary works that draw upon classical figures and themes. The book raises essential questions about the future direction of reception studies, making it invaluable for academics, researchers, and students interested in classical reception, film analysis, and the ongoing dialogue between ancient texts and modern visual media.

Key Features

The collection features essays that move beyond traditional fidelity-based criticism of classical adaptations in film and television.

Explores how modern screen works engage with and reinterpret ancient figures, themes, and source material from classical antiquity.

Published by Palgrave Macmillan as part of The New Antiquity series, offering peer-reviewed scholarly research.

Combines theoretical approaches from adaptation studies, comparative literature, and film studies to examine contemporary reception practices.

Addresses fundamental questions about the future of classical reception studies in academic discourse.
