- Inhalt
- The year is 2020 and we still celebrate, regardless of age, the 155 years of The Adventures of Alice in Wonderland, the 120 years of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, over 90 years of Winnie-the-Pooh and centuries or millennia of fables and fairy tales. Young Adult publications have also been catapulted forward in the last two decades, a boom easily exemplified by the commercial success of Harry Potter and other book series.
This course proposes to revisit Children’s Literature classics and an in-depth and critical analysis of texts which made many a childhood. Together, we will outline the development of Children’s Literature from Antiquity to Contemporary times, understand the construction of childhood and the concept of family in various literary texts as well as study the pedagogical functions of fables, fairy tales and children’s stories (including recent Disney renditions).
Furthermore, the course will provide an overview of Young Adult Literature and the recent boost the genre has received. Materials will include novels, comic books, graphic novels and film adaptations and the focus will be directed towards political and identity issues in the X-Men comics, and V for Vendetta and the place of these publications in the development of teenagers and young adults.
