Children's Literature and Social Change: Some Case Studies from Barbara Hofland to Philip Pullman
ISBN: 9780718892081 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

G.A. Henty, Robert Louis Stevenson and...

Stories and Society: Children's Literature in Its Social Context
ISBN: 9780333522479 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 143 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Children's literature is increasingly exposed to critical debate in England and America. There are indeed a number of histories and surveys of children's literature, but few works exist which discuss the contexts, ideologies and narrative structures of children's stories in a serious and detailed manner, or examine particular case-histories to see how the different forces interact. This is what this collection of essays attempts to do. The topics range from Little Women to Winnie the Pooh and from story forms such as 'The Adventure Story' to 'Fantasy'.

Rowling and other contemporary children's authors has demonstrated how passionately children can commit to the books they love. But this kind of devotion is not new. This timely volume takes up the challenge of assessing the complex interplay of forces that have created the popularity of children's books both today and in the past. The essays collected here ask about the meanings and values that have been ascribed to the term 'popular'. They consider whether popularity can be imposed, or if it must always emerge from children's preferences. And they investigate...
