"A much-needed and timely book in this contemporary climate that is so greatly threatened by the re-erection of borders both visible and ideological. A cutting-edge study in its renewed focus on the intersection of literature and the visual arts and a must-read for anyone interested in intermediality, comparative literature, and processes of literary and transmedial adaptation, (Re)Writing Without Borders challenges its readers into re-assessing the nature of intertextual translation and the notion of world literature."
- Professor Peter Arnds, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland
"Which creative forces are being activated during adaptive and collaborative processes, between literature and other arts? Which ideological issues come into play during such transitions? Our collective memory affects how we perceive the transformed material. But eclectic types of intertextuality fruitfully lead to new forms of intermediality, and these are mutually illuminating for both past and contemporary works of art. This is what is being amply explored in this intriguing, highly stimulating, informative and inspiring volume, (Re)Writing Without Borders. Together with the in-depth theoretical introduction, twelve essays demonstrate that new hybrid narrative forms may lead to formerly un-imagined intermedial results."
- Metka Zupančič, Professor Emerita, University of Alabama at Tuscaloosa, USA
"Literary or artistic works are rewritings of previous sources, and these studies consider the links, through different traditions, between them and modern media. The volume offers a most welcome reflection on intermediality, focussing on the relationships between literature and the visual arts, in particular cinema, and considers new forms of connections between literary works in the digital age. The essays gathered here present innovative perspectives on intermedial interactions, both between and within works, that appear in new creative forms."
- Professor Bernard Franco, Sorbonne University, Paris, France
