Women adapting : bringing three serials of the roaring twenties to stage and screen

Wood, Bethany, 1975- author

Overview

\"In Women Adapting, Bethany Wood examines how the developing preference for adaptations in early twentieth century entertainment promoted interrelationships among fiction, theatre, and film. Weaving together a broad range of archival sources, including personal correspondence, rejected rough drafts, advertisements, films, periodical illustrations, contracts, 'lost' songs, and film stills, Wood deftly explores how early-twentieth-century processes of adaptation forged connections across industries in entertainment. By centering her cross-disciplinary study on issues of gender, Wood considers how inter-industrial systems of adaptation affect both women writers and the female characters they create\"-- Provided by publisher.
