Palgrave Macmillan UK Imagining Sameness and Difference in Children's Literature
117.69 EUR
This book investigates how cultural sameness and difference has been presented in a variety of forms and genres of children’s literature from Denmark, Germany, France, Russia, Britain, and the United States; ranging from English caricatures of the 1780s to dynamic representations of contemporary cosmopolitan childhood.
