  • Ruth Prawer Jhabvala's Adapted Screenplays
    Absorbing the Worlds of Others: Ruth Prawer Jhabvala’s Adapted Screenplays By Laura Fryer Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of a PhD degree at De Montfort University, Leicester. Funded by Midlands 3 Cities and the Arts and Humanities Research Council. June 2020 i Abstract Despite being a prolific and well-decorated adapter and screenwriter, the screenplays of Ruth Prawer Jhabvala are largely overlooked in adaptation studies. This is likely, in part, because her life and career are characterised by the paradox of being an outsider on the inside: whether that be as a European writing in and about India, as a novelist in film or as a woman in industry. The aims of this thesis are threefold: to explore the reasons behind her neglect in criticism, to uncover her contributions to the film adaptations she worked on and to draw together the fields of screenwriting and adaptation studies. Surveying both existing academic studies in film history, screenwriting and adaptation in Chapter 1 -- as well as publicity materials in Chapter 2 -- reveals that screenwriting in general is on the periphery of considerations of film authorship. In Chapter 2, I employ Sandra Gilbert’s and Susan Gubar’s notions of ‘the madwoman in the attic’ and ‘the angel in the house’ to portrayals of screenwriters, arguing that Jhabvala purposely cultivates an impression of herself as the latter -- a submissive screenwriter, of no threat to patriarchal or directorial power -- to protect herself from any negative attention as the former. However, the archival materials examined in Chapter 3 which include screenplay drafts, reveal her to have made significant contributions to problem-solving, characterisation and tone.

  • Story S·T·O·R·Y
    S·T·O·R·Y STORY S·T·O·R·Y Substance, Structure, Style, and the Principles of Screenwriting R O B E R T M c K E E I dedicate this book to the happy memory of my parents who, in their very different ways, taught me the love of story. When I was first learning to read, but not always behaving appropriately, my father introduced me to the fables of Aesop in the hope that these ancient cautionary tales might improve my deportment. Each evening, after working my way through the likes of “The Fox and the Grapes,” he would nod and ask, “And what does this story mean to you, Robert?” As I stared at these texts and their handsome color illustrations, struggling to find my interpretations, I slowly came to realize that stories mean much more than words and pretty pictures. Later, before entering the university, I deduced that the best possible life includes as many rounds of golf as possible, and therefore, I would become a dentist. “Dentist?!” my mother laughed. “You can’t be serious. What happens when they cure all teeth problems? Where will dentists be then? No, Bobby, people will always need entertainment. I’m looking out for your future. You’re going into show business.” Contents Notes on the Text Part 1 The Writer and the Art of Story Introduction 1 The Story Problem Part 2 The Elements of Story 2 The Structure Spectrum 3 Structure and Setting 4 Structure and Genre 5 Structure and Character 6 Structure and Meaning Part 3 The Principles of Story Design 7 The Substance of Story 8 The Inciting Incident 9 Act Design 10 Scene Design 11 Scene Analysis 12 Composition 13 Crisis, Climax, Resolution Part 4 The Writer at Work 14 The Principle of Antagonism 15 Exposition 16 Problems and Solutions 17 Character 18 The Text 19 A Writer’s Method Fade Out Suggested Readings Filmography Index Acknowledgments About the Author Copyright About the Publisher NOTES ON THE TEXT The hundreds of examples in Story are drawn from a century of film writing and filmmaking around the world.
