Taught in French. This course examines adaptations of French novels to the screen. Students read a selection of literary texts which they compare to cinematic adaptations of the same works. Through chapter-by-chapter analyses of the books and scene-by-scene examination of the films, students gain an appreciation for the possibilities and limits of the two means of expression.
