Description

Explore the complex relationship between morality and storytelling in this academic collection from Routledge. Part of the Studies in Childhood series, this book examines the ethical questions found in, through, and about literature written for young readers from 1700 to the present day. This collection investigates how texts intended for children address questions of value and depict the moral growth of characters. By analyzing various historical attempts to convey moral messages, the essays look at the underlying assumptions of different eras. Readers can examine how specific visions of childhood were shaped by efforts to teach virtues, as well as the cultural shifts that led to a resistance against didactic teaching methods. This work is an essential resource for those studying the history of social and cultural developments through the lens of children's books. It provides a deep look into the shared moral presuppositions that influence how we write for and understand the development of children.
