Jak znaleźć męża między żywymi trupami a krwiożerczymi ośmiornicami? Mash-up, czyli „klasyczne romanse z okresu regencji” z domieszką elementów nadnaturalnych (na przykładzie Pride and Prejudice and Zombies oraz Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters)

Abstracts

PL

In this article, the author confronts two mash-up novels (novels, in which new motives and elements are added to the masterpieces of world’s literature) – Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith and Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters by Jane Austen and Ben H. Winters. The author shows how the new elements (zombies and sea monsters) are added to Jane Austen’s novels and underlines which elements have to be left in their original form, and which can be changed. The author also describes how the development of the new motives affects the ways of describing the world of the novel and its characters.
