Description

Explore the complex ways we understand, imagine, and remember childhood through this academic collection. Childhood, Literature and Science: Fragile Subjects examines the intersection of cultural representations and scientific discourses to see how they portray children in Western modernity. This interdisciplinary work traces the entanglement of childhood images with notions of innocence and fragility, while also addressing themes of sin and evilness. By investigating how different child figures emerge or disappear within social representations, the text provides a deep look into the memories of adult selves and the perspectives of experts. Part of the Routledge Advances in Sociology series, this book serves as a vital resource for those studying the historical and social evolution of how children are viewed in society. It offers a unique perspective on how literature and science combine to shape our collective understanding of growing up.
