        Adapting Frankenstein

        The monster's eternal lives in popular culture

        by Dennis R. Cutchins, Dennis R. Perry

        Mary Shelley's Frankenstein is one of the most popular novels in western literature. It has been adapted and re-assembled in countless forms, from Hammer Horror films to young-adult books and bandes dessinées. Beginning with the idea of the 'Frankenstein Complex', this edited collection provides a series of creative readings that explore the elaborate intertextual networks that make up the novel's remarkable afterlife. It broadens the scope of research on Frankenstein while deepening our understanding of a text that, 200 years after its original publication, continues to intrigue and terrify us in new and unexpected ways.

        Beard's Roman Women

        By Anthony Burgess

        by Graham Foster

        Anthony Burgess draws upon an autobiographical episode to create Beard's Roman Women, the story of a man haunted by his first wife, presumed dead. But is she? A marvellously economical book, full-flavoured, funny, and heartfelt, showing its author at the height of his powers. This new edition is the first to be published with David Robinson's photographs for over 40 years. The text of the novel has been restored using the original typescripts, and Graham Foster's new introduction provides valuable insight into the fictional and biographical contexts of the novel. The text is fully annotated with a detailed set of notes and this edition includes the previously unpublished script for Burgess's television film By the Waters of Leman: Byron and Shelley at Geneva, and a rare piece of Burgess's writing about Rome.

        Kunst und Erfahrung

        Beiträge zu einer philosophischen Kontroverse

        by Stefan Deines, Jasper Liptow, Martin Seel

        Welche Rolle spielen Wahrnehmung und Erfahrung für unseren Umgang mit Kunst? Gibt es eine spezifisch ästhetische Erfahrung? Und wenn ja, wie lässt sie sich begrifflich bestimmen? Von Antworten auf diese Fragen hängt nicht nur das Schicksal vieler Theorien der Kunst ab, sondern letztlich das Schicksal der Ästhetik selbst, insofern sie mit dem Anspruch auftritt, als Theorie einer besonderen Form der Erfahrung Aufschluss über das Wesen der Kunst zu geben. Der Band versammelt prominente Autoren sowohl der »kontinentalen« als auch der »analytischen« Ästhetik, die den Zusammenhang von Kunst und Erfahrung aus systematischer Perspektive beleuchten, darunter Georg W. Bertram, Noël Carroll, Jerrold Levinson, Martin Seel, Eva Schürmann und James Shelley.
