Remakes and Remaking - Concepts - Media - Practices (Paperback)

From "Avatar" to danced versions of "Romeo and Juliet", from Bollywood films to "Star Wars Uncut": This book investigates film remakes as well as forms of remaking in other media, such as ballet and internet fan art. The case studies introduce readers to a variety of texts and remaking practices from different cultural spheres. The essays also discuss forms of remaking in relation to neighbouring phenomena like the sequel, prequel and (re-)adaptation. "Remakes and Remaking" thus provides a necessary and topical addition to the recent conceptual scholarship on intermediality, transmediality and adaptation.
