dc.description.abstractThis special issue of Symposia Melitensia, now in its eighth edition, takes up the notion of 'Adaptations' as its grounding motif. It is never an inauspicious time to speak of adaptation: scholarship and debate about adaptation and its myriad forms and manifestations across the humanities, the social sciences and further afield have been sustained for many years, and with particular emphasis over the past two decades. In her book A Theory of Adaptation -considered by many as a luminary text that rendered the debate increasingly popular among scholarly circles in the humanities, the social sciences and beyond across the Euro-Atlantic - Linda Hutcheon reaffirms the ubiquity of adaptations as derivative products that in many ways structure our society and its modes of living today. Hence the cinema and television, the internet, the smart mobile, the dramatic stage, the e-text, the novel and the book, social networking facilities, digital media and technologies, even language itself-these have increasingly come to be perceived not simply as products, but, perhaps more crucially, as catalysts of adaptive processes.en_GB
