"Nineteenth-Century Women at the Movies analyzes in detail the adaptations of novels by eight popular writers - Mary Shelley, Jane Austen, Charlotte Bronte, Emily Bronte, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Louisa May Alcott, Ouida, and George Eliot - and examines the ways in which those writers' themes are reinterpreted, updated, and often misconstrued by the filmmakers who bring them to the screen.
The volume's twelve essays, whose authors include some of the foremost scholars of contemporary literature and film, offer critical insights not only into the visions of the novelist and the filmmaker but also into contemporary cultural concerns."--BOOK JACKET.
