Funded Activity Summary

The Internationalisation Of Charlie Chaplin's Tramp. This project is a cross-cultural and interdisciplinary study of the multifarious reincarnations of  Charlie Chaplin's The Tramp across the world's film, theatre, television and advertising industries over the last nine decades.  The project examines the appeal of Chaplin's Tramp in different languages and cultures, and the ways in which the figure has been adapted, translated, reconfigured and indigenised for local audiences and their individual contexts and traditions.  The Internationalisation Of Chaplin's Tramp draws on theoretical perspectives and methodologies from screen studies, history, the visual arts, anthropology and cultural studies and the writing and production practices of documentary film.
