Stassinopoulou DANKSAGUNG Die Vorbereitungen für diese Arbeit, zu denen auch einige Publikationen zum Thema gehörten, erstreckten sich über eine lange Periode, die Niederschrift meiner Dissertation hingegen erfolgte binnen eines Jahres und fiel, wie ich leider sagen muss, in eine schwere Zeit. Die Probleme in meinem Land machten es mir mitunter schwer, mich auf meine Arbeit zu konzentrieren und ließen des Öfteren Zweifel an der Sinnhaftigkeit dieses Unterfangens aufkommen. Dass ich die Arbeit schließlich doch zu Ende führen konnte, liegt daran, dass es Menschen gab, die mir außerordentlich viel Unterstützung, Hilfe und Zuspruch zuteil werden ließen. Ihnen möchte ich an dieser Stelle meinen herzlichen Dank aussprechen. An erster Stelle seien meine Betreuerin Univ. Prof. Dr. Maria A. Stassinopoulou und meine Begutachterin Ao. Prof. Dr. Claudia Römer genannt. Prof. Stassinopoulou, die mir mit viel Geduld und Verständnis zur Seite stand, danke ich für ihre wertvollen Kommentare und Gedanken und ihr Interesse an dem Thema meiner Arbeit. Bei Prof. Römer bedanke ich mich dafür, dass sie mich den gesamten Entstehungsprozess hindurch sowohl persönlich als auch wissenschaftlich, durch ihre Ermutigung und ihre Hilfsbereitschaft, immer unterstützt hat.

  • 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.

I quantes pel·lícules s’hi han presentat des que va néixer el Truffaut? El Truffaut és una relíquia. I és testimoni real d’un espai real de quan les ficcions cinematogràfiques només es podien veure en una sala pública envoltada de més públic. Ara en restauren el reliquiari. Tornarà igual que com el vam deixar. Només en variaran els accessos i el complex edifici que l’acull. Des de la primavera del 2019 viu un exili en una sala de la plaça Jordi de Sant Jordi. No recordo si ho vaig veure en una pel·lícula, en un documental, en un reportatge escrit o hi vaig ser personalment: als Estats Units hi ha moltes sales de cinema bellíssimes reconvertides en esglésies per a predicadors apocalíptics.

Somut ve somut olmayan kültürel mirasların yer edindiği müzeler toplumun ortak belleğini de yansıtır. Müzeler birer bellek mekânı olarak kurgulandığında, mekânın belleğini de aktarmaları beklenir. Yaşadıkları alanlara kendilerine özgü özellikleri yansıtan insan topluluklarının geniş kitleler halinde barındığı kentler, çok kültürlü ve çoksesli ortamlar olarak var olmaya devam etmektedirler. Kentlerin içinde yer alan müzeler ise, çoğu zaman, ortaklaşa bir biçimde oluşturulmuş bu kültürü ve kentsel kimliği yansıtmakla yükümlü olmuşlardır. Müzenin temsil ettiği değerler, bulundukları mekânın dışında da yer almaktadır. Bu nedenle günümüz müzeleri, sadece kendilerine tanımlanmış sınırlı alanlarda varlığını sürdürmeyi değil, bu alanları esneterek daha geniş bir mekânsal anlatıyı ele almayı hedeflemektedir. Bu şekilde müzeler sadece toplumu değil, toplumun şekillendirdiği yaşam alanlarını ve bu alanların kimliğini de yansıtma görevini üstlenmiş olmaktadır. Bunun en büyük nedeni kentlerin, kent içerisinde yaşayan insan
