Letteratura e Cinema: Analisi di un Rapporto

Abstract

This article presents the relationship between literature and cinema as an institutional relationship in continuous evolution, which in past years has begun to change contours: on the one hand, movies would not exist without books, since 80% of the movies are adapted from books; on the other, once made into a movie, books lose their luster to the splendor of image; it is also true that certain books would not exist without the movies since books are influenced by movies. There is therefore a circular relationship of intense overlap that moves from one language to the other, but from which derive unbeatable diversity and competition to occupy individual and social spaces.
