Synopsis
What do Paradise Regained and Terminator 2 have in common? They are both sequels, both chronological extensions of narratives that were originally envisioned as closed and complete works. Part Two explores the phenomenon of secondary narrative by studying the conditions that determine its production and reception. The volume encompasses works of poetry, drama, prose, and films, moving from Homer to Hollywood. Each piece is grounded in a specific genre or period and while engaging a broader historical or theoretical perspective.

Original Paperback. Condition: Gut. XIII; 217 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Little friction on the cover, overall good and clean. - This project was born in the discovery of common territory shared by the two apparently disparate research fields of eighteenth-century English print culture and late twentieth-century film. That common territory was the sequel. What, we found ourselves asking, do Samuel Richardson's 'cult-novel' Pamela and the movie The Terminator have in common that might have led both to generate a sequel? This initial question broadened into a general curiosity about the sequel as a recurrent phenomenon, whether in the form of the Little Iliad, Paradise Regained, Anne of Avonlea, or Friday the 13th, Part 4; the sequel has become an almost-predictable footnote to the narratives of Western history.
