John Wiltshire examines how Jane Austen's work has been 'recreated' in other mediums.

Reviews

'John Wiltshire turns to psychoanalysis and notions of love, art and creativity to make a psychologically rooted contribution to the theory of adaptation. His interest is in the complexities - psychic and emotional as much as practical - of what it means to adapt, rewrite, appropriate or recreate a work, and he argues, rightly, that these terms need to be broken down and analysed.'
