Adaptation and Appropriation explores: multiple definitions and practices of adaptation and appropriation the cultural and aesthetic politics behind the impulse to adapt diverse ways in which contemporary literature and film adapt, revise and reimagine other works of art the impact on adaptation and appropriation of theoretical movements, including structuralism, post-structuralism, postcolonialism, postmodernism, feminism and gender studies the appropriation across time and across cultures of specific canonical texts, but also of literary archetypes such as myth or fairy tale. Ranging across genres and harnessing concepts from fields as diverse as musicology and the natural sciences, this volume brings clarity to the complex debates around adaptation and appropriation, offering a much-needed resource for those studying literature, film or culture.

Very readable and engaging. I am currently reading this as a text for a film and literature class, and am learning so much about analysis of adaptations. Sanders uses as many examples as she can lay hands on and still remain relatively concise. The topic itself can be a bit difficult to digest all at once, but Sanders' writing style makes the critical theory understandable and interesting. My copy has 150 pages, plus a glossary, making it easy to get through in a few days of study. Well worth it; I'm not selling this one back to the bookstore.
