The Representation of Traditionally Marginalized Communities in Shakespeare Adaptation to a New Cultural and Historical Context: taking Ophelia (1962) and Yulia and Juliet (2018) as examples.
Abstract
By selecting Ophelia (Claude Chabrol, 1962) and Yulia and Juliet (Zara Dwinger, 2018), this thesis tries to discuss the representation of traditional marginalized communities in Shakespeare adaptations, based on the specific analysis to the original. Two different communities are involved in these two films. However, they all continue the spirit of humanitarianism which is paramount in Shakespeare’s work.
