Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"This is an interesting, often witty, and absolutely informative book. What makes the revisiting of Austen a box office commercial phenomenon--witness Clueless and Bridget Jones's Diary--is our postmodern climate, what the editors call 'present cultural concerns.' We already live within a type of reality Austen has constructed, and our remodeling of that reality in the present at once displays varieties of clashes, lacunae, significations, parodies, and dilemmas." -- Joseph Natoli, author of Postmodern Journeys: Film and Culture 1996-1998

Reseña del editor:

Examines recent Austen remakes as well as other “post-heritage” films and television shows to show how the past is reshaped for a contemporary market.
