Picturing Alice in Wonderland: illustrations and movies (Seminar)

Dozent/in: Emer O'Sullivan

Termin:
 wöchentlich | Mittwoch | 08:15 - 09:45 | 14.10.2024 - 31.01.2025 | C 5.310 Seminarraum

Inhalt: Lewis Carroll famously wrote in the opening pages of "Alice in Wonderland": "'and what is the use of a book,' thought Alice, 'without pictures or conversations!"'. Since then countless illustrators from John Tenniel through Salvador Dalí to Rebecca Dautremer have created their own pictorial interpretation of the novel in their illustrations, and numerous film-makers, one of the most recent being Tim Burton, have created their version as moving pictures on the screen. This seminar - after engaging with Carroll's novel itself - will examine prominent examples of both forms of interpretation and adaptation to see what principles of interpretation and production can be identified.
