Applying the metaphor of the 'border crossing' from one temporal or spatial territory into another, \u003ci\u003eBorder Crossing: Russian Literature into Film\u003c\/i\u003e examines the way classic Russian texts have been altered to suit new cinematic environments.\u003cbr\u003eIn these essays, international scholars examine how political and economic circumstances, from a shifting Soviet political landscape to the perceived demands of American and European markets, have played a crucial role in dictating how filmmakers transpose their cinematic hypertext into a new environment. Rather than focus on the degree of accuracy or fidelity with which these films address their originating texts, this innovative collection explores the role of ideological, political, and other cultural pressures that can affect the transformation of literary narratives into cinematic offerings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alexander Burry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474411428\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474411424\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/26\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.10w x 0.90d","brand":"Alexander Burry","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46838304702719,"sku":"9781474411424","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7780c898-b047-4322-9009-5f5c633c7b23.jpg?v=1746589414","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/border-crossing-alexander-burry-9781474411424","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
