| Summary: | <p>This article analyzes a serial of <em>Great Expectations</em> in two parts directed by Julian Jarrold for the BBC in 1999. Through the semiotic approach proposed by Nicola Dusi in his essay <em>Il cinema come traduzione. Da un medium all’altro</em> (2003), this paper wants to highlight the translation strategies employed in the target text in comparison with the hypotext. The aim of this article is to show how the dominant isotopies – Pip’s repression and manipulation – are figurativized in the representation of the main places of power in the adaptation: Satis House, Little Britain and Newgate.</p> |
