Abstract

Objectives: This article points to the adaptation of Jacob’s short story to Puen-Paeng, the television series of Phordeekhum.

Methods: This study examines Jacob's Puen-Paeng from 1933 and the Puen-Paeng Phordeekhum television series from 2015 using narratology, along with literature and adaptation studies, as the conceptual framework.

Results: The study found that the television series expanded both the plot and character dimensions. It revealed adaptation procedures in the digital era through transtextuality, notably by creating intertext with other texts, both internal and external, and by using paratext to attract attention and enhance viewing. The adaptation of
Puen-Paeng Phordeekhum integrates Jacob’s short story while also incorporating intertextual elements in line with digital television production, where content, form, and media converge.

Application of this study: This study provides a framework for the study of the adaptation of literature to television series.
