Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is the first sustained scholarly work on screen adaptations of Doña Bárbara. This study suggests a new way of studying film adaptations by paying consistently attention to how these adaptations have been received by audiences: in fact, the monograph is the first work to combine screen adaptation theories with the more recent approaches of fandom studies. By focussing on Spanish-language case studies and fan communities, Doña Bárbara Unleashed makes an important contribution to fandom studies scholarship, which is predominantly Anglophone.
