About "Borders in/of adaptation"
"[T]he nature of this volume, “Borders in/of Adaptation”, was intentionally broad, meant to encompass the many facets of contemporary adaptation studies (...) Our study of borders in adaptation first focuses on displacement, be it chronological, geographical, or metaphysical, thus foregrounding the idea of the border in a geopolitical sense as represented in different iterations of a narrative. (...) Our second section foregrounds these liminal spaces and thresholds of adaptation more explicitly" (Wells-Lassagne 2022).
