The process of translating works of literature to the silver screen
is a rich field of study for both students and scholars of
literature and cinema. The fourteen essays collected in this 2007
volume provide a survey of the important films based on, or
inspired by, nineteenth-century American fiction, from James
Fenimore Cooper's The Last of the Mohicans to Owen Wister's The
Virginian. Many of the major works of the American canon are
included, including The Scarlet Letter, Moby Dick and Sister
Carrie. The starting point of each essay is the literary text
itself, moving on to describe specific aspects of the adaptation
process, including details of production and reception. Written in
a lively and accessible style, the book includes production stills
and full filmographies. Together with its companion volume on
twentieth-century fiction, the volume offers a comprehensive
account of the rich tradition of American literature on screen.
