Adaptation within the interspaces of literature, theatre and cinema: The minor projections of Hamlet

This study traces how the artworks transform the images from each other with their differentiated techne in which they became de/re territorilalized in the plane of immanence. In this context, we have approached the epistemological boundaries of adaptation and approached the transtextual journey of the image within a theoretical perspective. Adaptation according to the convention of this study is more than just carrying the image from one medium to another. The view that addresses adaptation only as an activity with full loyalty to the source text ignores the creativity and the unique possibilities of the new medium in which the image is adapted. This traditional approach to adaptation still exists in the fields of literature, cinema and theater. In this study, adaptation studies were discussed by feeding from a poststructural perspective. In this study; since the emergence of art, it has been argued that the adaptation studies at mimetic and diegetic levels still exist, and that the images originate from the new, interpretative processes of the images. The main problem of this research is to reveal the effects of adaptation on image layers and creativity level within the framework of minor and major concepts of Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari. It was aimed to reveal the possibility of a new, creative and original adaptation to the view that makes the source text hierarchically superior to the adapted text. The aim of this thesis is to provide an inspiration for new and creative adaptation studies by tracing the transformation that the images have undergone in the textual process. For this purpose, different projections of images were searched on the adaptations of William Shakespeare's Hamlet text. In the follow-up of inter-images and the textual approach, ideas on the possibility of minor creation have been put forward. Literature, theater and cinema interface; based on the myths of humanity, it was wanted to produce ideas about the creative dimensions of the conversation through the projection of the tragedy that has existed for centuries and the human being to the contemporary genres and texts.
