Beschreibung
Comic adaptations of literary texts have established themselves in recent years as an enormously productive art form. The spectrum ranges from conversions based closely on the literary original, up to adaptations that profoundly transform the original text. The articles in the book analyze the transformation processes characteristic to literary comics, which prove to be extremely dynamic. Along with the reduction of the literary original on a textual level, which is necessitated by the medium, comes the expansion of a visual dimension, which incorporates not just comic-specific design media, but also motifs and processes from the visual arts and film.
