Course description
The course considers the changes that occur as particular texts move between various cultural forms. The media under consideration will include print, radio, theatre, television, film and videogames, but some adaptations that change cultures rather than media, such as television formats and cross cultural stage adaptations will also be examined. This is a third level course that is the compulsory capstone for the English major. It is also one of the third level courses that students can select in the Film and Television and the Drama majors and in the extended major in Drama and Writing
