"Tess of the D'Urbervilles": What the Film Left out.

Veidemanis, Gladys V.

English Journal, v77 n7 p53-57 Nov 1988

Compares Roman Polanski's film adaptation of "Tess of the D'Urbervilles" with the original novel by Thomas Hardy. Suggests that a comparative analysis of the two works enhances students' awareness of Hardy's artistry and sharpens their ability to respond critically to literature. (MM)
