    This book is a study of the evolving relationships between literature, cyberspace, and young adults in the twenty-first century. Megan L. Musgrave explores the ways that young adult fiction is becoming a platform for a public conversation about the great benefits and terrible risks of our increasing dependence upon technology in public and private life. Drawing from theories of digital citizenship and posthuman theory, Digital Citizenship in Twenty-First Century Young Adult Literature considers how the imaginary forms of activism depicted in literature can prompt young people to shape their identities and choices as citizens in a digital culture Introduction -- Cyborg Bodies in Illness and Disability Narratives -- Cyborg Minds at Play in Participatory Cultures, or, Going Public in Private -- Gamer Guys: Playing with Civic Responsibility in Ludic Fiction -- Gamer Girls: Going Online in the Age of Misogynist Terrorism -- Imaginary Activism -- Conclusion -- Bibliography -- Index

    Applying critical race theory to contemporary African American children’s and young adult literature, this book explores one key racial issue that has been overlooked both in race studies and literary scholarship-internalised racism. By systematically examining the issue of internalised racism and its detrimental psychological effects, particularly towards the young and vulnerable, this book defamiliarises the very racial issue that otherwise has become normalised in American racial discourse, reaffirming the relevance of race, racism, and racialisation in contemporary America. Through readings of works by Jacqueline Woodson, Sharon G. Flake, Tanita S. Davis, Sapphire, Rosa Guy, and Nikki Grimes, Suriyan Panlay develops a new critical discourse on internalised racism by studying its effects on marginalised children, its manifestations, and the fictional narrative strategies that can be used to regain and reclaim a sense of self Introduction -- Chapter 1 Internalised Racism and Critical Race Theory -- Chapter 2 Wounded -- Chapter 3 Tongue-tied -- Chapter 4 Displaced -- Chapter 5 Triumphed -- Conclusion -- References -- Index

    Human-Human and Human-Animal Relations -- Gender and Diversity -- Aspects of Cultural Heritage -- Iconic Characters and Narratives -- Immersive Experience, Reflexive Engagement. Disney – This name stands not only for a company that has had global reach from its early days, but also for a successful aesthetic programme and ideological positions that have had great commercial success but at the same time have been frequently criticised. Straddling traditionalism and modernism, Disney productions have proven adaptable to social discourses and technical and media developments throughout its history. This volume brings together scholars from several European countries to explore various dimensions that constitute ‘Disney.’ In line with current media and cultural studies research, the chapters deal with human-human and human-animal relations, gender and diversity, iconic characters and narratives, Disney’s contribution to cultural and visual heritage, and transmedial and transfictional spaces of experience and practices of participation associated with Disney story worlds.

Richmal Crompton, Author of Just William: A Literary Life celebrates the first two William books, Just William (1922) and More William (1922). As well as a study of her famous character William Brown, this book is an introduction to Richmal Crompton’s less well-known fiction and a story about her writing life. Her multifaceted identity—her deep knowledge of Classical Greek and Latin literature and languages, her life as a disabled writer, and her writing about domestic violence and disability—played a role in her literary persona. Jane McVeigh moves beyond Richmal Crompton’s impact on children’s literature and offers an appraisal of all her writing including her novels and short fiction, her media profile on radio and TV, her impact on her readers—both adults and children—and her international success. Particularly, McVeigh considers Crompton in the context of twentieth century woman writers and the development of crossover fiction for dual audiences. The book argues that as a woman writer pigeon-holed as a writer for children, Crompton’s other novels and short stories have been side-lined and overlooked. More than a century after the first book collection of Crompton’s William stories was published, this biography places Richmal Crompton among other twentieth century women writers. Jane McVeigh is Honorary Research Fellow in the School of Humanities and Social Sciences at the University of Roehampton, UK where the Richmal Crompton Collection is located. .

    Chapter 1: Reading Alcott’s Textual Childhood -- Chapter 2: ‘We really lived most of it’: The Trouble with Autobiography -- Chapter 3: Subverting the Sentimental Domestic -- Chapter 4: Queering the Child -- Chapter 5: Race, Disability, and Class: Alcott’s Peripheral Children -- Chapter 6: A Transcendental Childhood -- Chapter 7: ‘The model children’: Alcott’s Theories of Education -- Chapter 8: Retelling Alcott in the 21st Century. This book examines constructions of childhood in the works of Louisa May Alcott. While Little Women continues to gain popular and critical attention, Alcott’s wider works for children have largely been consigned to history. This book therefore investigates Alcott’s lesser-known children’s texts to reconsider critical assumptions about childhood in her works and in literature more widely. Kristina West investigates the trend towards reading Alcott’s life into her works; readings of gender and sexuality, race, disability, and class; the sentimental domestic; portrayals of Transcendentalism and American education; and adaptations of these works. Analyzing Alcott as a writer for twenty-first-century children, West considers Alcott’s place in the children’s canon and how new media and fan fiction impact readings of her works today.

    Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: Home Childhood and Children’s Literature -- Chapter 3: Recovery of Origins: Myths of Homeland and Return in the Fantasy Fiction of O.R. Melling -- Chapter 4: Continuity and Change: The Tradition / Modernity Dialectic in the Construction of Home in Kate Thompson’s The New Policeman and Creature of the Night -- Chapter 5: Internationalization or Globalization? Myth Technology and Mobility in Eoin Colfer’s Artemis Fowl Series -- Chapter 6: Inclusions and Exclusions: Debunking Myths of Home and Homelessness in the Fiction of Siobhán Parkinson -- Chapter 7: Unhomely Secrets in the Work of Siobhan Dowd -- Chapter 8: Conclusion. In the context of changing constructs of home and of childhood since the mid-twentieth century, this book examines discourses of home and homeland in Irish children’s fiction from 1990 to 2012, a time of dramatic change in Ireland spanning the rise and fall of the Celtic Tiger and of unprecedented growth in Irish children’s literature. Close readings of selected texts by five award-winning authors are linked to social, intellectual and political changes in the period covered and draw on postcolonial, feminist, cultural and children’s literature theory, highlighting the political and ideological dimensions of home and the value of children’s literature as a lens through which to view culture and society as well as an imaginative space where young people can engage with complex ideas relevant to their lives and the world in which they live. Examining the works of O. R. Melling, Kate Thompson, Eoin Colfer, Siobhán Parkinson and Siobhan Dowd, Ciara Ní Bhroin argues that Irish children’s literature changed at this time from being a vehicle that largely promoted hegemonic ideologies of home in post-independence Ireland to a site of resistance to complacent notions of home in Celtic Tiger Ireland. Ciara Ní Bhroin is a founding member and former president of the Irish Society for the Study of Children’s Literature. She lectured for many years in English language, literacy and literature at the Marino Institute of Education, an associated college of Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland. She has published a range of articles and book chapters on children’s literature and is co-editor of What Do We Tell the Children? Critical Essays on Children’s Literature (2012).

    Chapter 1 Introduction: Vampire Fiction, Girls and Shame -- Chapter 2 Writing (on) Girls’ Bodies: Vampires and Embodied Girlhood -- Chapter 3 A Love So Strong That It Aches: (Re-)Writing Vampire Romance -- Chapter 4 Pangs of Pleasure, Pangs of Guilt: Girls, Sexuality and Desire -- Chapter 5 Save Your Butt from Getting Raped: Girls, Vampires, Violence -- Chapter 6 Biting into Books: Supernatural Schoolgirls and Academic Performance -- Chapter 7 Conclusion. This book explores the narratives of girlhood in contemporary YA vampire fiction, bringing into the spotlight the genre’s radical, ambivalent, and contradictory visions of young femininity. Agnieszka Stasiewicz-Bieńkowska considers less-explored popular vampire series for girls, particularly those by P.C. and Kristin Cast and Richelle Mead, tracing the ways in which they engage in larger cultural conversations on girlhood in the Western world. Mapping the interactions between girl and vampire corporealities, delving into the unconventional tales of vampire romance and girl sexual expressions, examining the narratives of women and violence, and venturing into the uncanny vampire classroom to unmask its critique of present-day schooling, the volume offers a new perspective on the vampire genre and an engaging insight into the complexities of growing up a girl.

The infant, the mother, and the breast in the paintings of Marguerite Gérard -- 4. Mother at the source: romanticism and infant education -- 5. Coleridge, the ridiculous child, and the limits of Romanticism -- 6. Educational experiments: childhood sympathy, regulation and object relations in Maria Edgeworth’s writing about education -- 7. ‘Advice [...] by one as insignificant as a MOUSE’: human and non-human infancy in eighteenth-century moral animal tales -- 8. William Godwin, Romantic-era historiography and the political cultures of infancy -- 9. Experimenting with children: infants in the scientific imagination -- 10. ‘A wretch so sad, so lorn’: the feral child and the Romantic cultures of infancy. This collection of essays explores the remarkable range and cultural significance of the engagement with ‘infancy’ during the Romantic period. Taking its point of departure in the commonplace claim that the Romantics invented childhood, the book traces that engagement across national boundaries, in the visual arts, in works of educational theory and natural philosophy, and in both fiction and non-fiction written for children. Essays authored by scholars from a range of national and disciplinary backgrounds reveal how Romantic-period representations of and for children constitute sites of complex discursive interaction, where ostensibly unrelated areas of enquiry are brought together through common tropes and topoi associated with infancy. Broadly new-historicist in approach, but drawing also on influential theoretical descriptions of genre, discipline, mediation, cultural exchange, and comparative methodologies, the collection also seeks to rethink the idea of a clear-cut dichotomy between Enlightenment and Romantic conceptions of infancy.

The collection includes essays by a number of notable scholars in the field as well as newer voices. The collection will be of use for a wide range of scholars: the question of how childhood is constructed and how scholars can account for the range of childhood experiences is a central one for both disciplines.” — Lucy Pearson, Senior Lecturer in Children’s Literature at Newcastle University,UK and the author of The Making of Modern Children’s Literature in Britain: Publishing and Criticism in the 1960s and 1970 (Ashgate, 2013) Literary Cultures and Twentieth-Century Childhoods collection of essays offers innovative methodological and disciplinary approaches to the intersection of Anglophone literary cultures with children and childhoods across the twentieth century. In two acts of re-centering, the volume focuses both on the multiplicity of childhoods and literary cultures and on child agency. Looking at classic texts for young audiences and at less widely-read and unpublished material (across genres including poetry, fi ction, historical fi ction and biography, picturebooks, and children’s television), essays foreground the representation of child voices and subjectivities within texts, explore challenges to received notions of childhood, and emphasize the role of child-oriented texts in larger cultural and political projects. Chapters frame themes of self and specularity across the twentieth-century; question tropes of childhood; explore issues of identity and displacement in narratives of history and culture; and elevate children as makers of literary culture. The volume approaches literary culture not as solely produced by adults for consumption by children but as also co-created by young people through their actions as speakers, artists, readers, and writers.

Omne Vetus Novum Est Iterum: The Rise of Latin translation in children's literature, Carl F Miller -- 17. Newtonian and Quantum Physics for Babies: A Quirky Gimmick for Adults or Pre-Science for Toddlers?, Caisey Gailey. From Struwwelpeter to Peter Rabbit, from Alice to Bilbo—this collection of essays shows how the classics of children’s literature have been transformed across languages, genres, and diverse media forms. This book argues that translation regularly involves transmediation—the telling of a story across media and vice versa—and that transmediation is a specific form of translation. Beyond the classic examples, the book also takes the reader on a worldwide tour, and examines, among other things, the role of Soviet science fiction in North Korea, the ethical uses of Lego Star Wars in a Brazilian context, and the history of Latin translation in children’s literature. Bringing together scholars from more than a dozen countries and language backgrounds, these cross-disciplinary essays focus on regularly overlooked transmediation practices and terminology, such as book cover art, trans-sensory storytelling, écart, enfreakment, foreignizing domestication, and intra-cultural transformation.

    Introduction: the Romantic cultures of infancy -- 1. ‘A detached peninsula’: infancy in the work of Thomas De Quincey -- 2. William Blake’s Infant Joy -- 3. The infant, the mother, and the breast in the paintings of Marguerite Gérard -- 4. Mother at the source: romanticism and infant education -- 5. Coleridge, the ridiculous child, and the limits of Romanticism -- 6. Educational experiments: childhood sympathy, regulation and object relations in Maria Edgeworth’s writing about education -- 7. ‘Advice [...] by one as insignificant as a MOUSE’: human and non-human infancy in eighteenth-century moral animal tales -- 8. William Godwin, Romantic-era historiography and the political cultures of infancy -- 9. Experimenting with children: infants in the scientific imagination -- 10. ‘A wretch so sad, so lorn’: the feral child and the Romantic cultures of infancy. This collection of essays explores the remarkable range and cultural significance of the engagement with ‘infancy’ during the Romantic period. Taking its point of departure in the commonplace claim that the Romantics invented childhood, the book traces that engagement across national boundaries, in the visual arts, in works of educational theory and natural philosophy, and in both fiction and non-fiction written for children. Essays authored by scholars from a range of national and disciplinary backgrounds reveal how Romantic-period representations of and for children constitute sites of complex discursive interaction, where ostensibly unrelated areas of enquiry are brought together through common tropes and topoi associated with infancy. Broadly new-historicist in approach, but drawing also on influential theoretical descriptions of genre, discipline, mediation, cultural exchange, and comparative methodologies, the collection also seeks to rethink the idea of a clear-cut dichotomy between Enlightenment and Romantic conceptions of infancy.

The collection includes essays by a number of notable scholars in the field as well as newer voices. The collection will be of use for a wide range of scholars: the question of how childhood is constructed and how scholars can account for the range of childhood experiences is a central one for both disciplines.” — Lucy Pearson, Senior Lecturer in Children’s Literature at Newcastle University,UK and the author of The Making of Modern Children’s Literature in Britain: Publishing and Criticism in the 1960s and 1970 (Ashgate, 2013) Literary Cultures and Twentieth-Century Childhoods collection of essays offers innovative methodological and disciplinary approaches to the intersection of Anglophone literary cultures with children and childhoods across the twentieth century. In two acts of re-centering, the volume focuses both on the multiplicity of childhoods and literary cultures and on child agency. Looking at classic texts for young audiences and at less widely-read and unpublished material (across genres including poetry, fi ction, historical fi ction and biography, picturebooks, and children’s television), essays foreground the representation of child voices and subjectivities within texts, explore challenges to received notions of childhood, and emphasize the role of child-oriented texts in larger cultural and political projects. Chapters frame themes of self and specularity across the twentieth-century; question tropes of childhood; explore issues of identity and displacement in narratives of history and culture; and elevate children as makers of literary culture. The volume approaches literary culture not as solely produced by adults for consumption by children but as also co-created by young people through their actions as speakers, artists, readers, and writers.

    Introduction -- Convergences, Crossings, Contestations: Children’s Literature and Film in Asia -- Part I: East -- Children’s Literature and Childhood Imagination in 1960s Taiwan: Jen-Mu Pan and the Discourse of “Child Heart” -- Parents and Parent-Child Relationships in Contemporary Chinese Children’s Literature (1978-2014) -- SOCIETY IS A FAMILY: Social Exclusion and Social Dystopia in South Korean Films -- Family Diversity in Recent Japanese Children’s Literature -- Mutilation, Metamorphosis, Transition, Transcendence: Revisiting Genderism and Transgenderism in The Little Mermaid through Gake no Ue no Ponyo -- Part II: South and West -- In the Shadows: Tracing Children and Childhood in Indian Cinema -- Engendering Identities: Gay and Lesbian Characters in Contemporary Indian English Young Adult Fiction -- The Demon as “Other” in Sri Lankan Children’s Literature: Rambukwella’s Mythil’s Secret and Asiri’s Quest -- Towards a Poetics of Childhood Ethics in Abbas Kiarostami’s Children’s and Young Adult Films -- Part III: Southeast -- Folktale Adaptation and Female Agency: Reconfigurations of the Mahsuri Legend in Selected Contemporary Malaysian Young Adult Fiction -- Seeking “Unity in Diversity”: Contemporary Children’s Books in Indonesia -- The Paradox of the Filipino Child: Realist Philippine Children’s Stories (1990-2018) -- Through Screens and Streams: Digital Liminality and Identities in Philippine Young Adult Speculative Fiction -- Part IV: Diaspora -- Symbiotic Cultural Landscapes: Retelling Chinese Folktales in Ed Young’s Picture Books -- Hyphens, Hybrids and Bridges: Negotiating Third spaces in Asian-American Children’s Literature. This volume provides a key analysis of Asian children’s literature and film and creates a dialogue between East and West and between the cultures from which they emerge, within the complex symbiosis of their local, national and transnational frameworks. In terms of location and content the book embraces a broad scope, including contributions related to the Asian-American diaspora, China, India, Indonesia, Iran, Japan, Malaysia, the Philippines, South Korea, Sri Lanka, and Taiwan. Individually and collectively, these essays broach crucial questions: What elements of Asian literature and film make them distinctive, both within their own specific culture and within the broader Asian area? What aspects link them to these genres in other parts of the world? How have they represented and shaped the societies and cultures they inhabit? What moral codes do they address, underpin, or contest? The volume provides further voice to the increasingly diverse and fascinating output of the region and emphasises the importance of Asian art forms as depictions of specific cultures but also of their connection to broader themes in children’s texts, and scholarship within this field.

    Children’s Literature and Intergenerational Relationships: Encounters of the Playful Kind explores ways in which children’s literature becomes the object and catalyst of play that brings younger and older generations closer to one another. Providing examples from diverse cultural and historical contexts, this collection argues that children’s texts promote intergenerational play through the use of literary devices and graphic formats and that they may prompt joint play practices in the real world. The book offers a distinctive contribution to children’s literature scholarship by shifting critical attention away from the difference and conflict between children and adults to the exploration of inter-age interdependencies as equally crucial aspects of human life, presenting a new perspective for all who research and work with children’s culture in times of global aging.

    Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: Home Childhood and Children’s Literature -- Chapter 3: Recovery of Origins: Myths of Homeland and Return in the Fantasy Fiction of O.R. Melling -- Chapter 4: Continuity and Change: The Tradition / Modernity Dialectic in the Construction of Home in Kate Thompson’s The New Policeman and Creature of the Night -- Chapter 5: Internationalization or Globalization? Myth Technology and Mobility in Eoin Colfer’s Artemis Fowl Series -- Chapter 6: Inclusions and Exclusions: Debunking Myths of Home and Homelessness in the Fiction of Siobhán Parkinson -- Chapter 7: Unhomely Secrets in the Work of Siobhan Dowd -- Chapter 8: Conclusion. In the context of changing constructs of home and of childhood since the mid-twentieth century, this book examines discourses of home and homeland in Irish children’s fiction from 1990 to 2012, a time of dramatic change in Ireland spanning the rise and fall of the Celtic Tiger and of unprecedented growth in Irish children’s literature. Close readings of selected texts by five award-winning authors are linked to social, intellectual and political changes in the period covered and draw on postcolonial, feminist, cultural and children’s literature theory, highlighting the political and ideological dimensions of home and the value of children’s literature as a lens through which to view culture and society as well as an imaginative space where young people can engage with complex ideas relevant to their lives and the world in which they live. Examining the works of O. R. Melling, Kate Thompson, Eoin Colfer, Siobhán Parkinson and Siobhan Dowd, Ciara Ní Bhroin argues that Irish children’s literature changed at this time from being a vehicle that largely promoted hegemonic ideologies of home in post-independence Ireland to a site of resistance to complacent notions of home in Celtic Tiger Ireland. Ciara Ní Bhroin is a founding member and former president of the Irish Society for the Study of Children’s Literature. She lectured for many years in English language, literacy and literature at the Marino Institute of Education, an associated college of Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland. She has published a range of articles and book chapters on children’s literature and is co-editor of What Do We Tell the Children? Critical Essays on Children’s Literature (2012).

    Introduction -- Chapter 1: Wild and Exotic ‘Beasties’ in Early Children’s Literature -- Chapter 2: Victorian Menageries -- Chapter 3: Young Collectors -- Chapter 4: Nonsense ‘Beasties’ -- Chapter 5: Prehistoric ‘Beasties’ -- Chapter 6: Epilogue. . Animals, Museum Culture and Children’s Literature in Nineteenth-Century Britain: Curious Beasties explores the relationship between the zoological and palaeontological specimens brought back from around the world in the long nineteenth century—be they alive, stuffed or fossilised–and the development of children’s literature at this time. Children’s literature emerged as dizzying numbers of new species flooded into Britain with scientific expeditions, from giraffes and hippopotami to kangaroos, wombats, platypuses or sloths. As the book argues, late Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian children’s writers took part in the urge for mass education and presented the world and its curious creatures to children, often borrowing from their museum culture and its objects to map out that world. This original exploration illuminates how children’s literature dealt with the new ordering of the world, offering a unique viewpoint on the construction of science in the long nineteenth century. Laurence Talairach is Professor of English at the University of Toulouse Jean Jaurès and associate researcher at the Alexandre Koyré Centre for the History of Science and Technology, France. Her research specialises in the interrelations between nineteenth-century literature, medicine and science.

    Chapter 1 Introduction: Vampire Fiction, Girls and Shame -- Chapter 2 Writing (on) Girls’ Bodies: Vampires and Embodied Girlhood -- Chapter 3 A Love So Strong That It Aches: (Re-)Writing Vampire Romance -- Chapter 4 Pangs of Pleasure, Pangs of Guilt: Girls, Sexuality and Desire -- Chapter 5 Save Your Butt from Getting Raped: Girls, Vampires, Violence -- Chapter 6 Biting into Books: Supernatural Schoolgirls and Academic Performance -- Chapter 7 Conclusion. This book explores the narratives of girlhood in contemporary YA vampire fiction, bringing into the spotlight the genre’s radical, ambivalent, and contradictory visions of young femininity. Agnieszka Stasiewicz-Bieńkowska considers less-explored popular vampire series for girls, particularly those by P.C. and Kristin Cast and Richelle Mead, tracing the ways in which they engage in larger cultural conversations on girlhood in the Western world. Mapping the interactions between girl and vampire corporealities, delving into the unconventional tales of vampire romance and girl sexual expressions, examining the narratives of women and violence, and venturing into the uncanny vampire classroom to unmask its critique of present-day schooling, the volume offers a new perspective on the vampire genre and an engaging insight into the complexities of growing up a girl.

    Chapter 1: Reading Alcott’s Textual Childhood -- Chapter 2: ‘We really lived most of it’: The Trouble with Autobiography -- Chapter 3: Subverting the Sentimental Domestic -- Chapter 4: Queering the Child -- Chapter 5: Race, Disability, and Class: Alcott’s Peripheral Children -- Chapter 6: A Transcendental Childhood -- Chapter 7: ‘The model children’: Alcott’s Theories of Education -- Chapter 8: Retelling Alcott in the 21st Century. This book examines constructions of childhood in the works of Louisa May Alcott. While Little Women continues to gain popular and critical attention, Alcott’s wider works for children have largely been consigned to history. This book therefore investigates Alcott’s lesser-known children’s texts to reconsider critical assumptions about childhood in her works and in literature more widely. Kristina West investigates the trend towards reading Alcott’s life into her works; readings of gender and sexuality, race, disability, and class; the sentimental domestic; portrayals of Transcendentalism and American education; and adaptations of these works. Analyzing Alcott as a writer for twenty-first-century children, West considers Alcott’s place in the children’s canon and how new media and fan fiction impact readings of her works today.

    Examining culturally significant works of children's culture through a posthumanist, or animality studies lens, Animality and Children's Literature and Film argues that Western philosophy's objective to establish a notion of an exclusively human subjectivity is continually countered in the very texts that ostensibly work to this end.

    Human-Human and Human-Animal Relations -- Gender and Diversity -- Aspects of Cultural Heritage -- Iconic Characters and Narratives -- Immersive Experience, Reflexive Engagement. Disney – This name stands not only for a company that has had global reach from its early days, but also for a successful aesthetic programme and ideological positions that have had great commercial success but at the same time have been frequently criticised. Straddling traditionalism and modernism, Disney productions have proven adaptable to social discourses and technical and media developments throughout its history. This volume brings together scholars from several European countries to explore various dimensions that constitute ‘Disney.’ In line with current media and cultural studies research, the chapters deal with human-human and human-animal relations, gender and diversity, iconic characters and narratives, Disney’s contribution to cultural and visual heritage, and transmedial and transfictional spaces of experience and practices of participation associated with Disney story worlds.

Richmal Crompton, Author of Just William: A Literary Life celebrates the first two William books, Just William (1922) and More William (1922). As well as a study of her famous character William Brown, this book is an introduction to Richmal Crompton’s less well-known fiction and a story about her writing life. Her multifaceted identity—her deep knowledge of Classical Greek and Latin literature and languages, her life as a disabled writer, and her writing about domestic violence and disability—played a role in her literary persona. Jane McVeigh moves beyond Richmal Crompton’s impact on children’s literature and offers an appraisal of all her writing including her novels and short fiction, her media profile on radio and TV, her impact on her readers—both adults and children—and her international success. Particularly, McVeigh considers Crompton in the context of twentieth century woman writers and the development of crossover fiction for dual audiences. The book argues that as a woman writer pigeon-holed as a writer for children, Crompton’s other novels and short stories have been side-lined and overlooked. More than a century after the first book collection of Crompton’s William stories was published, this biography places Richmal Crompton among other twentieth century women writers. Jane McVeigh is Honorary Research Fellow in the School of Humanities and Social Sciences at the University of Roehampton, UK where the Richmal Crompton Collection is located. .

    Introduction: Emerging Identities and the Practice of Possibility -- Imagining the Abject in Kingsley, MacDonald, and Carroll: Disrupting Dominant Values and Cultural Identity in Children’s Literature -- Gender, Abjection, and Coming of Age: Games, Dolls, and Stories.-Constructing the Self: Connection and Separation -- Giving Voice to Abjection: Experience and Empathy -- Engendering Abjection’s Sublime: Frances Hodgson Burnett’s The Secret Garden -- Embodying Herethics: Rossetti’s Speaking Likenesses -- Conclusion—Abjection’s Sublime: Imagining Love -- Notes -- Bibliography. . This book reveals how the period’s transforming identities affected by social, economic, religious, and national energies offers rich opportunities in which to analyze the relationship between identity and transformation. At the heart of this study is this question: what is the relationship between Victorian children’s literature, its readers, and their psychic development? Ruth Y. Jenkins uses Julia Kristeva’s theory of abjection to uncover the presence of cultural anxieties and social tensions in works by Kingsley, MacDonald, Carroll, Stevenson, Burnett, Ballantyne, Nesbit, Tucker, Sewell, and Rossetti. .
