Literature in Film 1

Tutor:

Marie MRAVCOVÁ

Synopsis:

The seminar is intended for the second - adaptive - year of study in scriptwriting, but students in other departments are also welcome, especially students in film directing and editing. This is a two-semester seminar, with debates held once every two weeks, during which students study a literary story and its film adaptation. Seminar work and debates should be based on the presentation (or analysis) of a literary work, taking into account its genre, style, narrative voice, and characters, its theme and structure, the depiction of time and space. Understanding and formuating the approach to the adaptation is based on identifying thematic changes, differences in verbal and visual narrative, semantic and stylistic shifts, the expession of a personal style of direction, etc. The selected works are centred mainly on artistic prose (or drama) and on a creative-interpretative type of adaptation, thus at works by important authors. The literary stories represent various different eras, genres and styles.
