Abstract :Devoting an entire issue of the Journal of American Studies of Turkey to the subject of adaptation might seem an ambitious, if not foolhardy undertaking. Hitherto adaptation studies has been predominantly concerned with textual transformations – literature into film, theater into film, and so on. As I tried to point out in the last issue of the journal, however, the term “adaptation” can be viewed in much broader terms as a process of coming to terms with new experiences, new material or other phenomena. This process underpins most transnational as well as transmedial encounters, as different groups appropriate material for specific socio-ideological purposes Raw 4 .
