Television shows like "The Sopranos" and "The Wire" have taken the place of the serialized fiction that novelists like Charles Dickens used to write. And novelists today are often screenwriters as well, and in turn write books that seem written specifically for film adaptations. This six-week course, offered by the John Adams Institute and taught by Dan Hassler-Forest of the University of Amsterdam, will explore the way today's narrative media have grown increasingly convergent. We'll focus on individual authors and filmmakers, such as Charlie Kaufman, Jane Campion and David Cronenberg, whose work continually crosses the boundaries between narrative media.
