Abstract

This paper intends to present a theoretical discussion in the field of
adaptation studies, aiming to introduce the concept of intercultural
adaptation and to propose an analytical model for this kind of
investigation. With this, the text wants to advance the historical
discussions about fidelity/ spirit of the work, by elaborating formal
categories capable to demonstrate, in the stylistic materiality of the
source-text and the adapted film, the transformations resultant of
the adaptive process in which the book and the movie belong to
different cultural patterns. At last, we will use some examples of
Shakespeare in Brazilian cinema to demonstrate the analytical
validity of the proposed categories.
