La literatura y el cine: una historia de relaciones

La literatura y el cine se relacionan en cuatro aspectos básicos: la literatura determina, en sus orígenes, la naturaleza de los filmes, sus motivos y estrategias; la literatura y el cine son formas narrativas, por lo que comparten estructuras míticas, populares y de relato; ambos se vinculan mediante el problema de la adaptación; y el cine ejerce una influencia estética en las obras literarias y en el concepto tradicional de literatura. Este artículo examina estos vínculos desde una perspectiva conceptual e histórica.Literature and cinema are related in four main aspects: in its origins literature determines the nature of films; literature and motion pictures are narratives, and share mythical, popular and narrative structures; both are linked because of the issue of adaptation; and movies influence literary works and the traditional concept of literature.
