Geoffrey Wilson In Next Generation Adaptation: Spectatorship and
Process, editor Allen H. Redmon brings together eleven essays from
a range of voices in adaptation studies. This anthology explores
the political and ethical contexts of specific adaptations and, by
extension, the act of adaptation itself. Grounded in questions of
gender, genre, and race, these investigations focus on the ways
attention to these categories renegotiates the rules of power,
privilege, and principle that shape the contexts that seemingly
produce and reproduce them. Contributors to the volume examine such
adaptations as Quentin Tarantino's Death Proof, Jacques Tourneur's
Out of the Past, Taylor Sheridan's Sicario and Sicario: Day of the
Soldado, Jean-Jacques Annaud's Wolf Totem, Spike Lee's He's Got
Game, and Jim Jarmusch's Paterson. Each chapter considers the
expansive dialogue adaptations accelerate when they realize their
capacity to bring together two or more texts, two or more peoples,
two or more ideologies without allowing one expression to erase
another. Building on the growing trends in adaptation studies,
these essays explore the ways filmic texts experienced as
adaptations highlight ethical or political concerns and argue that
spectators are empowered to explore implications being raised by
the adaptations.
