- W839504735 abstract "IntroductionIn November 2011, main Flemish policy body, in cooperation with confederation of Flemish book trade, organized^ a matchmaking event, Speed Dating Novel/Film/Television. The objective was to stimulate joint ventures by encouraging contact between publishers of novels and producers of films and television programs. This event is an example of how official policy can influence development of adaptation projects. The significance of policy in this process is not a recent phenomenon; it originated with introduction of systematic subsidy mechanisms in various European countries and regions during 1950s and 1960s. The allocation of government support has since been crucial to production or withdrawal of many adaptation projects. As early as 1969, Thomas H. Guback noted that without this support, film production in Europe would hardly be solvent and various industries would lead a most precarious existence (142)-a statement that gained more relevance in following decades. In tne field of adaptation studies, however, where central questions include why and how particular texts are adapted, role of government's production policies in realization process remains widely overlooked despite growing contextual, industrial, and materialist approaches within field (Murray, Materializing 10).The main aim of this article is to sned light on role of policy (generally understood as process of government funding for feature films) in production of literary adaptations. The article focuses on Ereduction and policy in Flanders, northern Dutch-speaking region of elgium, whose recent history is marked by growing regional autonomy at cultural, political, and economic levels. Selective support arrived in Belgium during Flemish cultural and political emancipatory years of 1960s and it immediately took off as a regionalized affair. Starting from introduction of Flemish subsidy mechanism in 1964 ana ending with its structural renewal in 2002, this study relies primarily on original archival research in Flemish government's department records.1 In particular, commission's reports provide exceptional insight into policy process. They include tne commission's recommendations to minister and detailed accounts of preceding internal discussions regarding project applications. Information on non-realized projects is also included in analysis because such projects show the latent machinery of adaptation industry, highlighting which texts are selected for adaptation, by whom, for what purposes and with what cultural effects (Murray, Phantom Adaptations 16). The large amount of archival documentation is complemented by original interviews with former policy actors (film commission members, administrative personnel, and political actors) and filmmakers (directors and producers).The Materialization of Adaptation StudiesSimone Murray's recently published The Adaptation Industry is first book- length investigation that takes on a production-related approach toward adaptations. Although criticized for minimizing individual creative forces (Raw, Industry), Murray's study constitutes a welcome balance to overwhelming dominance of textual analysis as methodological foundation of discipline. The discussion of methodologies and questioning of what exact object of study should be have always been prevalent in adaptation studies and resulted in various evolutions and research approaches (Cardwell 43-76; Johnson 162). However, these studies have remained essentially textual and this often limits contextual aspects to mere brief glances at production contexts or cursory analyses of public and critical receptions of adaptation and/or adapted work. This may seem somewhat surprising as George Bluestone's Novels into Film, which is considered starting point for systematic study of adaptation issue, devoted a substantial part of its theoretical reflection to contextual considerations:Just a step behind artist, and sometimes overtaking him, had been shaping power of censor and audience. …" @default.
