Shakespeare and Contemporary Adaptation: the Graphic Novel
SHAKESPEARE AND CONTEMPORARY ADAPTATION: THE GRAPHIC NOVEL By MARGARET MARY ROPER A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy with Integrated Studies The Shakespeare Institute College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham December 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation.

ABSTRACT This thesis examines the process of adaptation of Shakespeare’s plays into the graphic novel medium. It traces the history of these adaptations from the first comic books produced in the mid-twentieth century to graphic novels produced in the twenty-first century. The editions used for examination have been selected as they are indicative of key developments in the history of adaptation of Shakespeare’s plays into the medium. This thesis explores how the plays are presented and the influences on the styles of presentation. It traces the history of the form and how the adaptations have been received in various periods. It also examines how the combination of illustrations and text and the conventions of the medium produce unique narrative capacities, how these have developed over time and how they used to present the plays. -
Bat Gotham Final
William Uricchio The Batman’s Gotham City™: Story, Ideology, Performance The trademark affixed to Batman’s Gotham City™ suggests something of its special status. Plastered across games, amusement park rides, toys, and other collectables, Gotham City as brand is a highly valued asset not only of the Batman franchise, but of the larger corporate entities of DC Comics and Warner Bros. As a place marker and invocation of urban space, Gotham City’s protected legal status in fact extends to little more than a ten-letter sequence. It lacks borders, elected officials, citizens – none of which is surprising given its fictional status. But it does have a history and a raison d’être, and with them an accretion of representational strategies, icons, and of course, characters. This essay will side-step the value of Gotham City as intellectual property and generator of profits, looking at it instead as a generative element in the production of Batman narratives and related ideological value systems, both of which offer an opportunity to rethink urban cartographies as enacted rather than objective spaces. As the Riddler once put it, “When is a man a city?” “When it’s Batman or when it’s Gotham…. It’s huge and contradictory and dark and funny and threatening.” (Gaiman 1989) It is difficult to argue with this broad spectrum of descriptors. And yet the Riddler’s remarks regarding the mutual definition of the character and the city bring with them a crucial implication. The interdependence of the Batman and Gotham City is as William Uricchio ! 4/2/09 8:03 PM Deleted: mutual essential to sustaining the logic behind the endless iterations of the narrative as the William Uricchio ! 4/2/09 8:03 PM Deleted: are Batman’s oft-invoked origin story. -
