Abstract

This book is the first full-length study to focus on the various film adaptations of Patricia Highsmith’s novels, which have been a popular source for adaptation since Alfred Hitchcock’s Strangers on a Train (1952). The collection of essays examines films such as The Talented Mr. Ripley, The Two Faces of January, and Carol, includes interviews with Highsmith adaptors and provides a comprehensive filmography of all existing Highsmith adaptations. Particular attention is paid to queer subtexts, mythological underpinnings, philosophical questioning, contrasting media environments and formal conventions in diverse generic contexts. Produced over the space of seventy years, these adaptations reflect broad cultural and material shifts in film production and critical approaches to film studies. The book is thus not only of interest to Highsmith admirers but to anyone interested in adaptation and transatlantic film history.

Abstract

This book is concerned with food autobiographies written by men from the 1980s to the present. It concentrates on how food has transformed autobiographical narratives and how these define the ways men eat and cook nowadays. After presenting a historical overview of the place of food within men´s autobiography, this volume analyzes the reasons for our present interest in food and the proliferation of life narratives focused on cooking. Then it centers around the identities that male chefs are taking on in the writing of their lives and the generic models they use: the heroic, the criminal and the hunting autobiographical scripts. This study gives evidence that autobiographies are crucial in the redefinition of the new masculinities emerging in the kitchen.  It will appeal to readers interested in Food Studies, Autobiographical Studies, Men's Studies and American Literature and Culture.

Abstract

This book provides an expansive view of celebrity’s intimate dimensions. In the process, it offers a timely reassessment of how notions of private and public were negotiated by writers, readers, actors and audiences in the early to mid-eighteenth century. The essays assembled here explore the lives of a wide range of figures: actors and actresses, but also politicians, churchmen, authors and rogues; some who courted celebrity openly and others who seemed to achieve it almost inadvertently. At a time when the topic of celebrity’s origins is attracting unprecedented scholarly attention, this collection is an important, pioneering resource.

Abstract

Laatste plicht is het liefdevolle portret van Hans Roest (1917-2006), spil in de redacties van de Geïllustreerde Pers en als chef verantwoordelijk voor korte verhalen en feuilletons in alle bladen van deze persgroep. Hij was mentor en vriend van Jeroen Brouwers. Toen de 22-jarige Brouwers zijn loopbaan in de schrijverij begon was Roest midden veertig, een beminnelijke en aristocratische heer die hem in aanraking bracht met schrijvers, dichters, hun werk en het uitgeverijbedrijf. Vanaf dat moment groeide de band tussen Roest en Brouwers tot een hechte vriendschap die een leven lang heeft geduurd. In prachtige, sterk autobiografische herinneringen geeft Brouwers een levensschets van zijn vriend, diens loopbaan en hartstochtelijke liefde voor literatuur en schrijvers. Tegelijk gunt hij de lezer een blik in het begin van zijn eigen loopbaan als schrijver.
