Leiningen Versus the Ants is a classic tale.
Originally written in 1937, this story has been an inspiration to many. In the last eighty years, this story has been presented in other formats besides as a printed story.
Have you ever:
- listened to an audiobook that you had already read?
- listened to a Radio Play for a familiar story?
- watched a movie after reading the book?
If you have done any of these, did you notice how the story changed, and in which ways it was similar?
Now that you have read the story of Leiningen Versus the Ants, you will access this text in a different format and then compare the two. Please access the story in ONE of its other formats for this comparison.
Von Mohl versus the Ants! Leiningen Retold
This version was created in 1954 by an unknown scripter. The artist is Steve Ditko. This version is not for the faint of heart or easily offended.
MacGyver: Trumbo's WorldLeiningen
Versus the Ants was also the inspiration behind "Trumbo's World" -
episode 6 of season 1 of the original MacGyver series in 1985. You will need to hunt around for this episode. It is often available on Amazon Prime and currently on CBS, if you have access to those. Do not pay for access - choose a different option for this assignment.
Note that the first 10 minutes of this episode are not part of the
Leiningen story, so you can jump to 10:00 if you are not interested in
watching the entire episode. (There is some pretty cool 'MacGyver'ing in the introduction, though, if you have time.)
You
will have to pay attention to figure out who is who in this variation,
as they have modified the roles. (Keep in mind whose show it is.)
If you choose this version, see if you can spot the Alberta connection.
Leiningen
Versus the Ants was also the inspiration for the 1954 movie The Naked Jungle
with Charleton Heston. If you are interested in old movies, you might
want to hunt it down.
