This volume, relaunching the Frontline Intelligence series, contains stage adaptations by contemporary dramatists of well-known, well-loved classics. Included are Jane Austen's "Emma" by Michael Fry, John Cleland's "The Life and Times of Fanny Hill" by April De Angelis, Charles Dickens's "Great Expectations" by John Clifford and George Eliot's "The Mill on the Floss" by Helen Edmundson. The introduction by Michael Fry discusses the issue of adapting classics in context.
Dickens, Charles: - Considered by many to be the greatest novelist of the English language, Charles John Huffam Dickens was born February 7, 1812, in Portsmouth, England. Some of his most popular works include Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, Nicholas Nickleby, A Tale of Two Cities and Great Expectations.Austen, Jane: - Jane Austen (1775-1817) was an English novelist whose works are among the most popular novels ever written. Her keen eye for social tension, and ear for taut, witty dialogue have delighted readers for centuries, while her novels have maintained historical importance through their analysis of the dependence of women on marriage to gain social standing and security. She has been widely adapted for both stage and screen, and continues to be among the most widely-read of late-18th-/early 19th-century writers.Austen, Jane: - Jane Austen (1775-1817) was an English novelist whose works are among the most popular novels ever written.
