Aims & Scope


Adaptation, or the conversion of oral, historical or fictional 
narratives into stage drama has been common practice for centuries. In 
our own time the processes of cross-generic transformation continue to 
be extremely important in theatre as well as in the film and other media 
industries. This double-blind peer-reviewed journal explores how 
adaptation, and the related areas of translation and intertextuality, 
continues to have a central place in our culture with a profound 
resonance across our civilisation.


This title is indexed with the Web of Science’s Emerging Sources 
Citation Index (ESCI).
