Description:
Clark (English, Wheaton College) and Higonnet (English and comparative literature, U. of Connecticut) bring together 22 scholars to look closely at the complexity of children's culture in the English-speaking world. The essays illuminate the vibrant intersection between children's literature and feminist criticism and spark new questions for scholarship. Sixteen chapters discuss history, theory, and culture. They ask questions about how the gender symbolism of children's culture is constructed and resisted, what happens when women rewrite or illustrate works written by men, how the socially scripted plots for boys and girls change through time and across cultures, and so forth.
