An Eclectic Compendium of Literary Adaptations in Cinema (AECLAC)is a collection of scholarly articles by academicians and researchers in Literature. This corroborative work brainstorms the trajectory of relation between Literary and cinematic discourses. It embodies multifaceted analysis of major seminal adaptations including adaptations from works of Shakespeare, Jane Austen, Virginia Woolf, Munshi Premchand and so on. Instead of confining its attention solely on theoretical framework, this anthology endeavours to go on as an archetype of critical appraisal of the literary and the performative text both individually and simultaneously.
