Abstract(s)
The Maias - Scenes from Romantic Life - 2014 is a
Portuguese film directed by João Botelho that confirms
the dramatic qualities widely recognized to Eça de
Queiroz’s nineteenth century novel - The Maias (1888).
Surprisingly, only in 2014 was the cinematic approach
conceived by proposing a unique and empathic
creative dialogue with the novel. Thus, the objective
of this paper is to establish a frame of reference which
guides the reading to an interpretative proposal of João Botelho’s filmic adaptation. The text emphasizes
the transformational grammar of the adaptation in
the composition of an artful and operatic-theatrical
ingenious film.
