Zur Transformation der Narrativität in aktuellen Theaterund Videoadaptionen des Romans ,Die Wand‘ von Marlen Haushofer

Abstract

This article goes into the process of adapting the novel ,Die Wand‘ by Marlen Haushofer. An attempt is made to further explore the effects of transmediation (Elleström 2017) and intermediale Aufpfropfung (Wirth 2006) at the narrative perspective level. The key question, which is addressed based on an analysis of selected theatrical adaptations, is: What effects does transmediation and intermediale Aufpfropfung have on the perception of the literary-theatrical (filmic) text on the narrative level? And further: Which intermedial transfers come into play on the narrative level and which narrative factors of the original are suppressed during the adaptation process?
