Fri Apr 01 15:24:48 GMT 2016



CALL FOR PAPERS:
Special edition of The Journal of Adaptation in Film and Performance
‘ANDREW DAVIES: THE SCREENWRITER AS ADAPTOR'

DEADLINE: 31ST JULY 2016


In celebration of the newly created Andrew Davies archive at De Montfort University, Leicester, The Journal of Adaptation in Film and Performance is issuing a special edition on the British screenwriter. This special edition seeks to initiate a critical appraisal of Davies’ work, situating analysis of individual productions within the context of a wider oeuvre and interrogating the role of the screenwriter/adaptor within the adaptive process.

We invite essays of approximately 4,000 – 6,000 words on Davies’ work and more broadly, on the role of the screenwriter/adaptor in the adaptation process. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

•	The role of the screenwriter in adaptation
•	The adaptation industry
•	The heritage industry
•	The BBC
•	Marketing period drama
•	Adapting historical fiction
•	Adapting the literary canon
•	Classic novel adaptation
•	Authorship
•	Television drama
•	Gender and race in period adaptation

Please email essays as well as queries or expressions of interest to guest editors Anna Blackwell, (anna.blackwell /at/ dmu.ac.uk), Deborah Cartmell, (djc /at/ dmu.ac.uk) and Natalie Hayton, (natalie.hayton /at/ dmu.ac.uk). Please include your name, research area and affiliation (if applicable) in all correspondence.

THE DEADLINE FOR ESSAYS IS THE 31ST JULY 2016.
