William Shakespeare's Macbeth on Film. From Interpretation to Revision

Описание:

The work discusses four very different filmic productions inspired by William Shakespeare’s Macbeth: Roman Polanski’s The Tragedy of Macbeth (1971, USA/UK), Geoffrey Wright’s Macbeth (2006, Australia), Billy Morrissette’s Scotland, PA (2001, USA) and Tom Magill’s Mickey B (2007, Northern Ireland). Drawing on the conceptual frames provided by psychoanalytical and feminist criticism as well as by the textual analysis of film, it aims at filling a gap in the study of Macbeth films – usually ignored or marginalised by Shakespearean scholars and film critics – being thus intended as a modest contribution to the vast domain of Shakespeare film criticism. Emphasis is laid on the films' exploration of the meanings of the Shakespearean hypotext and on their concern with controversial contemporary issues, such as violence, pornography, homosexuality, Satanism, drug abuse, etc.
