Download or read book Filming Forster written by Earl G. Ingersoll and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2012-02-16 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Filming Forster focuses upon the challenges of producing film adaptations of five of E. M. Forster’s novels. Rather than follow the older comparative approach, which typically damned the film for not being “faithful” to the novel, this project explores the interactive relationship between film and novel. That relationship is implicit in the title “Filming” Forster, rather than “Forster Filmed,” which would suggest a completed process. A film adaptation forever changes the novel from which it was adapted, just as a return to the novel changes the viewer’s perceptions of the film. Adapting Forster’s novels for the screen was postponed until well after the author’s death in 1970 because the trustees of the author’s estate fulfilled his wish that his work not be filmed. Following the appearance of David Lean’s film A Passage to India in 1984, four other film adaptations were released within seven years. Perhaps the most important was the Merchant Ivory production of Maurice, based upon Forster’s “gay” novel, published a year after his death. That film was among the first to approach same-sex relationships between men in a serious, respectful, and generally optimistic manner.

Download or read book Foreign Language Learning in the Digital Age written by Christiane Lütge and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-01-31 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foreign Language Learning in the Digital Age addresses the growing significance of diversifying media in contemporary society and expands on current discourses that have formulated media and a multitude of literacies as integral objectives in 21st-century education. The book engages with epistemological and critical foundations of multiliteracies and related pedagogies for foreign language-learning contexts. It includes a discussion of how multimodal and digital media impact meaning-making practices in learning, the inherent potentials and challenges that are foregrounded in the use of multimodal and digital media and the contribution that (foreign) language education can provide in developing multiliteracies. The volume additionally addresses foreign language education across the formal educational spectrum: from primary education to adult and teacher education. This multifaceted volume presents the scope of media and literacies for foreign language education in the digital age and examples of best practice for working with media in formal language learning contexts. This book will be of great interest to academics, researchers, and post-graduate students in the fields of language teaching and learning, digital education, media education, applied linguistics and TESOL.

Book excerpt: Jefferson Hunter examines English films and television dramas as theyrelate to English culture in the 20th century. He traces themes such as theinfluence of U.S. crime drama on English film, and film adaptations of literaryworks as they appear in screen work from the 1930s to the present. A Canterbury Taleand the documentary Listen to Britain are analyzed in the context of villagepageants and other wartime explorations of Englishness at risk. English crime dramasare set against the writings of George Orwell, while a famous line from Noel Cowardleads to a discussion of music and image in works like Brief Encounter and Look Backin Anger. Screen adaptation is also broached in analyses of the 1985 BBC version ofDickens's Bleak House and Merchant-Ivory's The Remains of the Day.
