Abstract

The adaptation of The Tale of Peter Rabbit into film shows that a children's story text can be translated. This is able to maintain the existence of a literary work. This research examines the development of the conflicts that occur in Peter Rabbit (2018) by Will Gluck as an adaptation of The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter. By using Linda Hutcheon's adaptation theory, this research focuses on the development of conflicts that occur from books to films. This study uses descriptive qualitative research with library data collection methods, thus finding two results. First, a book-to-film adaptation is not just a “retelling” of the story, but many things have to be changed. There are many causes for this implication, such as: ideology, audience, film revenue considerations, and culture. Conflict is one of the elements that must be changed due to the factors above. Second, the premise of the story in the book is very different from the premise of the story in the film. Actually, the film does not retell the story in the book, but rather the film continues the story in the book, so it seems as if the story of The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter is still continuing.
