    From fairy tales like "Little Red Riding Hood" to picture books, such as Birmingham, 1963 to women's graphic memoirs like One Hundred Demons, this study stakes a claim for paying attention to what texts for and about the girl have been saying about schooling beyond their official presence in educational curricula. Graphic Girlhoods argues that violence is a key element of the girl's education, and that this curriculum, and resistance to it, circulates in familiar storylines and images across visual culture. Calling upon a dynamic set of graphic texts of girlhood, Marshall identifies the locations, cultural practices, and representational strategies through which the schoolgirl experiences real and metaphorical violence

    "Children are the future architects, clients and users of our buildings. The kinds of architectural worlds they are exposed to in picture books during their formative years may be assumed to influence how they regard such architecture as adults. Contemporary urban environments the world over represent the various stages of modernism in architecture. This book reads that history through picturebooks and considers the kinds of national identities and histories they construct. 12 specialist essays from international scholars address questions such as: Is modern architecture used to construct specific narratives of childhood? Is it taken to support 'negative' narratives of alienation, on the one hand, and 'positive' narratives of happiness, on the other? Do images of modern architecture support ideas of 'community'? reinforce 'family values'? If so, what kinds of architecture, community and family? How is modern architecture placed vis-à-vis the promotion of diversity (ethnic, religious, gender etc.)? How might the use of architecture in comic strips or the presence of specific kinds of building in fiction aimed at younger adults be related to the groundwork laid in picturebooks for younger readers? This book reveals what stories are told about modern architecture and shows how those stories affect future attitudes towards and expectations of the built environment"--

    In einer globalisierten Welt und multikulturellen Gesellschaften wird interkulturelle Kompetenz immer wichtiger, sodass insbesondere auch die Beschäftigung mit Kinder- und Jugendliteratur - im schulischen Kontext oder in der Freizeit - zunehmend an Bedeutung gewinnt. Doch was genau zeichnet interkulturelle Literatur für eine jüngere Zielgruppe aus? Welche Gesetzmäßigkeiten lassen sich ableiten, wenn man eine entsprechende Schablone auf das aktuelle Buchangebot legt? Andra Riemhofer schafft eine Orientierungshilfe für die Beurteilung von Kinder- und Jugendliteratur unter interkulturellen Gesich
