ReviewsAn erudite study that places adaptations of less-studied works (Tolstoy's The Forged Coupon and Dostoevsky's The Double and "The Meek One") alongside large-scale projects like the BBC's award-winning 2016 adaptation of War and Peace . Summing Up: Highly recommended. Graduate students, researchers, faculty., This volume is indispensable for scholars of adaptation and Russian literature. What is universal and what is nationally specific about humor, death or nostalgia? The contributors answer this question, analyzing adaptations as a multi-level dialogue between different media, across various cultures and historical eras., This fine volume applies an adaptation studies lens to Russian literature with compelling results. Its authoritative case studies and theoretically sophisticated introduction provide new insights into film versions of key works from Russia's 19th century canon, using a dialogic frame to tackle issues of huge intercultural, aesthetic, and socio-political significance., This book is an excellent source of information for readers with different levels of knowledge of Russian classics, world cinema, historical context, and relevant scholarship [...] it provokes the reader to watch films, read literature, and explore more information about relevant filmmakers and historical figures., An erudite study that places adaptations of less-studied works (Tolstoy's The Forged Coupon and Dostoevsky's The Double and "The Meek One") alongside large-scale projects like the BBC's award-winning 2016 adaptation of War and Peace .
