Reseña del libro "The trials and tribulations of adapting a novel for the small screen on the example of Sarah Waters' "Tipping the Velvet" (en Inglés)"

Seminar paper from the year 2019 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,0, University of Potsdam (Institut für Anglistik und Amerikanistik), course: Neo-Victorianism, language: English, abstract: In order to make their product appealing to as many viewers as possible, filmmakers often change elements in the source material they are adapting.

However, when looking more closely, the Victorian era was not as prudish as we like to think. At only 32, Waters, with her first publication, "revolutionised gay literature" by creating a narrative that "imagine[d] a Victorian lesbian history through the sexual adventures of cross-dressing" (Allfree). This was something entirely new for the wide readership. Although a fair share of fictional as well as non-fictional work on Victorian sexualities had been published during the 20th century, and there even existed contemporary Victorian writing on this topic - as Waters points out in the afterword of the 20th anniversary edition (cf. Waters 474) - none of these works had gained such a wide recognition by literary critics as
