Abstract:

In this book, members of the ChiLPA Project (Children's Literature:
Pure and Applied) explore the children's literature of several
different cultures, ranging from ancient India, nineteenth century
Russia, and the Soviet Union, to twentieth century Britain, America,
Australia, Sweden, and Finland. The research covers not only the form
and content of books for children, but also their potential social
functions, especially within education. These two perspectives are
brought together within a theory of children's literature as one among
other forms of communication, an approach that sees the role of
literary scholars, critics and teachers as one of mediation. Part I
deals with the way children's writers and picturebook-makers draw on a
culture's available resources of orality, literacy, intertextuality,
and image. Part II examines their negotiation of major issues such as
the child adult distinction, gender, politics, and the Holocaust. Part
III discusses children's books as used within language education
programmes, with particular attention to young readers' pragmatic
processing of differences between the context of writing and their own
context of reading.
