Abstract:

"The Nation and the Child – Nation Building in Hebrew Children’s Literature,
1930–1970" is the first comprehensive study to investigate the active role of
children’s literature in the intensive cultural project of building a Hebrew
nation.  

Which social actors and institutions participated in creating a Hebrew
children’s literature? How did they envision their young readership and what
new cultural roles did they prescribe for them through literary texts? How
tolerant was the children’s literary field to alternative or even subversive
national options and how did the perceptions of the “national child” change in
the transition from the pre-state Jewish settlement in Palestine to a
sovereign state? This book seeks to provide answers to such questions by
focusing on the literary activities of leading taste-setters and writers for
children, from the most intense period of Israeli nation building – the 1930s
and 1940s, the two last decades of the pre-state era, and the 1950s, the first
decade following the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948 – through
the 1960s, when the nation-building fervor gradually waned.
