Klappentext
Part One of this book analyzes the popular image of Hardy and his work, the reproduction of this image in film adaptations, and critical stereotypes about him and his fiction.Part Two juxtaposes Hardy's Far from the Madding Crowd and Schlesinger's adaptation, Hardy's Tess of the d'Urbervilles and Polanski's adaptation, and Hardy's Jude the Obscure and Winterbottom's adaptation. Each discussion of the novel and adaptation considers the novel itself, its critical history, how it has been adapted, and how the individual filmmakers have struggled with problems inherent in Hardy's novels.Part Three analyzes adaptations of The Woodlanders, The Scarlet Tunic, and The Claim, which have scarcely been seen or not at all in the United States, and four television movies and miniseries based on Hardy's work.
