The Medial Afterlives of H.P. Lovecraft: Comic, Film, Podcast, TV, Games de Tim Lanzendörfer

The Medial Afterlives of H.P. Lovecraft: Comic, Film, Podcast, TV, Games: Palgrave Studies in Adaptation and Visual Culture

Editat de Tim Lanzendörfer, Max José Dreysse Passos de Carvalho
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 10 feb 2023
Medial Afterlives of H.P. Lovecraft brings together essays on the theory and practice of adapting H.P. Lovecraft’s fiction and the Lovecraftian. It draws on recent adaptation theory as well as broader discourses around media affordances to give an overview over the presence of Lovecraft in contemporary media as well as the importance of contemporary media in shaping what we take Lovecraft’s legacy to be. Discussing a wide array of medial forms, from film and TV to comics, podcasts, and video and board games, and bringing together an international group of scholars, the volume analyzes individual instances of adaptation as well as the larger concern of what it is possible to learn about adaptation from the example of H.P. Lovecraft, and how we construct Lovecraft and the Lovecraftian today in adaptation. Medial Afterlives of H.P. Lovecraft is focused on an academic audience, but it will nonetheless hold interest for all readers interested in Lovecraft today.
