The Pictured Child in Victorian Philanthropy 1869-1908 Heather
The pictured child in Victorian philanthropy 1869-1908 HeatherParis April 2001 Submitted for the award of PhD Awarding body: University of Central Lancashire Total numberof volumes:2 Volume I of 2 Abstract This study sets out to investigate the nature of the Victorian child's standing in society using pictorial means. It takes the view that the picture, or visual image, has something important to tell us about attitudes towards childhood, and how children were regarded as a group, between 1869 and 1908. As a piece of scholarship, it is situated between the disciplines of art history and social history. Little work has been done on the child's visual representation, and its contribution to the historical record. The rich visual material that forms part of the archive of Victorian philanthropy in general, and temperance in particular, remains largely untapped. The study is a response to this scholarly neglect, with the uses made by charity of the pictured child forming its central site of inquiry. Philanthropic images of childhood will be set in their pictorial context by reference to their appearance in other parts of the public domain. The history of the relationship between adults and children has been called `age relations' by one historian. This study will apply general and specific practical approaches, drawn from critical visual techniques, to age relations, leading to an interpretation of how Victorian childhood was pictured for its audiences. Images will be approached as pictorial puzzles, and priority will be given to those solutions which formed part of the historical record. The main analytical tool to be usedis adoptedfrom critical theory's notion of the metapicture. -

Appendix B: a Literary Heritage I
Appendix B: A Literary Heritage I. Suggested Authors, Illustrators, and Works from the Ancient World to the Late Twentieth Century All American students should acquire knowledge of a range of literary works reflecting a common literary heritage that goes back thousands of years to the ancient world. In addition, all students should become familiar with some of the outstanding works in the rich body of literature that is their particular heritage in the English- speaking world, which includes the first literature in the world created just for children, whose authors viewed childhood as a special period in life. The suggestions below constitute a core list of those authors, illustrators, or works that comprise the literary and intellectual capital drawn on by those in this country or elsewhere who write in English, whether for novels, poems, nonfiction, newspapers, or public speeches. The next section of this document contains a second list of suggested contemporary authors and illustrators—including the many excellent writers and illustrators of children’s books of recent years—and highlights authors and works from around the world. In planning a curriculum, it is important to balance depth with breadth. As teachers in schools and districts work with this curriculum Framework to develop literature units, they will often combine literary and informational works from the two lists into thematic units. Exemplary curriculum is always evolving—we urge districts to take initiative to create programs meeting the needs of their students. The lists of suggested authors, illustrators, and works are organized by grade clusters: pre-K–2, 3–4, 5–8, and 9– 12. -

'* All Hiitobiographical record of a life that seems to have contained its full share of adventure on land and sea. It is a story that contains many interesting sidelights on sea- faring life, written in the manner of a man who has spent many years afloat, and it will appeal strongly to those who beheve that there is still something of human interest in life at sea." Glasffow Herald. " The story of a life that, spent mostly upon the ocean wave, has been full of strenuous endeavour and interesting incident. It is a record of achievement over circumstances that might well have daunted a heart less stout than that of the author." The Scotsman. " He has seen much of life afloat, and his experiences may be read with pleasure." The Spectator. "... Really a good biography, plainly written, and very well arranged. Gold-digging, cooking, and stock-working in Australia provided interludes in his sea life ; and he has many interesting things to tell us of life on the old windjammers, doings in port at home and abroad, and quite a crowd of yarns and anecdotes. His plain sailor story is well worth the reading, and makes a capital sea tale for boys." Liverpool Daily Post and Mercury. " The narrative of his experiences forms exceedingly interest- ing, and at times even exciting reading. -
