Abstracts

This paper is aimed at a brief exploration of several intermedial aspects of the novel and the play Thérèse Raquin written by Emile Zola. We try to show how the author succeeded in turning a novel into a play and the transformations that occurred in this process. This paper is organised into three sections. In the introductory section we will try to define the concept of intermediality, to specify our theoretical positioning. In the second section, we will talk about the novel from the point of view of the naturalistic aesthetics, fixing some details that have been developed in the play. In the third section we will apply the concept of intermediality to the framework of the filmed play, considering the actor’s body as an intermedial being part of a complex device that is the representation of a play.
