Description

Explore the complex themes of mortality through this academic volume from Routledge. Part of the Children's Literature and Culture series, this book examines how death is portrayed in stories for young readers across the globe. It serves as a significant resource for those studying the intersection of Childhood Studies, Children's Literature, and Death Studies. By analyzing both text and illustrations, the contributors look at death as a physical reality, a social construct, a philosophical concept, and a psychological challenge. The collection provides a wide range of perspectives by featuring literature from diverse locations including the US, Mexico, El Salvador, Guatemala, Canada, the UK, Sweden, Germany, Poland, Bulgaria, Brazil, and the Czech Republic. This work is designed for researchers and students seeking a deep understanding of how different cultures represent the end of life in children's media.
