Cultural Encounters: Intertextual and Intergeneric Dialogues

This study explores intertextual and intergeneric relations with a specific focus on their interactions with contemporary literary theory. The volume engages with the works of Toni Morrison, Alice Walker, Jean Rhys, and Djanet Sears. It examines crosscultural and Indigenous adaptations, postcolonial and feminist appropriations, and screen adaptations as central strands within current debates in adaptation studies.
