Centre for Adaptations

Description

The Centre for Adaptations at De Montfort University has been at the forefront of the development of Adaptation Studies as a field of interdisciplinary research on an international scale. It brings together De Montfort University academics from Drama, English, History, Film Studies and New Media.

The Centre hosts the journal Adaptation (Oxford University Press) and the book series Screen Adaptations (Methuen and Norton), and was the founding home of the Association of Adaptation Studies with colleagues in the US, Australia and Europe. The first of the Association’s annual conferences was hosted here in Leicester in 2006, followed by international conferences in Atlanta, Amsterdam, Berlin, Istanbul, London and Oxford.
