CALL FOR PAPERS for possible publication

Film Adaptation

I am seeking papers for a possible publication of
collected essays addressing various concerns of film
adaptation. Possible topics include but are in no way
limited to the following. What problems arise when
adapting a work of literature to a screenplay? How do
various adaptations of the same work use the primary
text differently in their adaptations? What role does
fidelity play in screenplay adaptation? What problems
in auteur/authorship arise in screenplay adaptation?
What role does intended audience play in screenplay
adaptation? Studies of single text adaptations are
also welcome.

Essays should be between 6500 and 8000 words,
including citations.

Please send proposals or completed papers accompanied
by abstracts of no longer than 200 words by April 3,
2006 to maggie.gover_at_yahoo.com.

Please include name, department affiliation, and
contact information.
