Centre for Adaptations

 

The international Centre for Adaptations brings together academics from Drama, English, Film Studies and New Media.

It hosts the journal, Adaptation (Oxford University Press) and the book series, Screen Adaptations (Methuen and Norton), organises workshops across universities in Europe and America, offers lectures during an annual cultural events week, and manages the annual Association of Literature on Screen Studies conference (which has taken place in Leicester, Atlanta and Amsterdam).

The MA in Adaptations is offered through the Centre which also recruits students for higher research degrees.

The Directorship of the Centre rotates annually: Dr Deborah Cartmell (2008-9), Dr Ian Hunter (2009-10) and Professor Imelda Whelehan (2010-11).
