This study explores Marjane Satrapi’s graphic novel, Persepolis, and the film adaptation of the same name, in terms of her transmedia approaches to visuality and narrativity. Ms Satrapi is an Iranian-born world artist who has used her “frame” works of art (i.e. “panels” in the novel and “screens” in the film) to counter prejudice and negative perceptions regarding Iran. The re-classification of comics as graphic novels offers an opportunity for redefining the popular literary genre of the novel, and Satrapi’s rich use of different art forms or mediums of expression sheds new light on literary scholarship through her unique revisiting of the relatedness between words and images via two graphic narratives ―namely, the “specific language” of the graphic novel and the “filmic language” of film.
