Description

The Children's Book Business by Lissa Paul presents an innovative book biography that traces how contemporary attitudes towards children and reading are rooted in late eighteenth-century publishing practices. By examining Eliza Fenwick's 1805 novel Visits to the Juvenile Library alongside Marjorie Moon's 1990 bibliography of Benjamin Tabart's Juvenile Library, Paul demonstrates the enduring connection between Enlightenment-era concepts of childhood literacy and modern digital-age learning. The work explores how the thinking, knowing children celebrated during the Enlightenment serve as models for today's technologically-engaged and socially-conscious young readers. This scholarly analysis reveals the intellectual foundations of children's literature and publishing, offering insights into how historical attitudes continue to shape contemporary approaches to children's knowledge and cultural development.

Key Features

The Children's Book Business examines Eliza Fenwick's 1805 novel Visits to the Juvenile Library as a primary case study for understanding historical children's publishing.

Lissa Paul connects late eighteenth-century attitudes towards children and reading with twenty-first century cultural sensibilities and modern educational approaches.

The book incorporates Marjorie Moon's 1990 bibliography of Benjamin Tabart's Juvenile Library to trace the evolution of children's literature across two centuries.

This Routledge publication explores Enlightenment-era concepts of thinking, knowing children as foundational models for contemporary technologically-connected young readers.

The work contributes to Children's Literature Studies by revealing how historical publishing practices inform present-day approaches to children's knowledge and literacy.
