An Apology for Intermediality: Re-Viewing Kate Bush's Wuthering Heights (1978)

Main Article Content

Miguel Alarcão

Resumo

Este ensaio centrar-se-á, de forma empírica, em dois vídeos inspirados por Wuthering Heights (1847), o único romance de Emily Brontë e uma obra de grande intensidade emocional. Conforme tentarei sugerir, tendo em vista promover (mais) abordagens práticas, aplicadas e multimédia ao estudo da literatura, estes vídeos - disponíveis online - consubstanciam e veiculam duas tradições literárias distintas, embora relacionadas (a gótica e a romântica), funcionando assim como 'fontes primárias', conduzindo os nossos estudantes do palco e/ou do ecrã de regresso à página e convidando-os assim a rever ( e talvez renovar…) as suas próprias noções e práticas de leitura.
