This collection explores how film and television depict the complex
and diverse milieu of the eighteenth century as a literary,
historical, and cultural space. Topics range from adaptations of
Austen's Sense and Sensibility and Defoe's Robinson Crusoe (The
Martian) to historical fiction on the subjects of slavery (Belle),
piracy (Crossbones and Black Sails), monarchy (The Madness of King
George and The Libertine), print culture (Blackadder and National
Treasure), and the role of women (Marie Antoinette, The Duchess,
and Outlander). This interdisciplinary collection draws from film
theory and literary theory to discuss how film and television
allows for critical re-visioning as well as revising of the
cultural concepts in literary and extra-literary writing about the
historical period.
