Initially a sour, bad-tempered child, Mary begins to bloom under the influence of nature when she discovers a long-abandoned garden on the grounds of her uncle s estate. Burnett s novel is brought to life by LibriVox volunteers who lend their voices to her characters. (Summary by Elizabeth Klett) One of the most delightful and enduring classics of children s literature, The Secret Garden by Victorian author Frances Hodgson Burnett has remained a firm favorite with children the world over ever since it made its first appearance. Initially published as a serial story in 1910 in The American Magazine, it was brought out in novel form in 1911. The plot centers round Mary Lennox, a young English girl who returns to England from India, having suered the immense trauma by losing both her parents in a cholera epidemic. However, her memories of her parents are not pleasant, as they were a selfish, neglectful and pleasure-seeking couple. Mary is given to the care of her uncle Archibald Craven, whom she has never met. She travels to his home, Misselthwaite Manor located in the gloomy Yorkshire, a vast change from the sunny and warm climate she was used to. When she arrives, she is a rude, stubborn and given to stormy temper tantrums. However, her nature undergoes a gradual transformation when she learns of the tragedies that have befallen her strict and disciplinarian uncle whom she earlier feared and despised....

    The Secret Garden Frances Hodgson Burnett Reviewed by: Bianca Sayuri, 17 Star Teen Book Reviewer of Be the Star You Are! Charity www.bethestaryouare.org Set in 1911, Mary Lennox is a ten-year-old girl born in India to a wealthy British couple. Neglected and unloved by her parents because of her sickly appearance, she is mostly taken care of by servants. As a result, Mary becomes arrogant, hostile, and self- centered. After her parents die due to an outbreak of cholera, she is sent to live with her uncle in Yorkshire. Mary starts to spend her days out in nature and almost instantly it has an incredible positive effect on her. Connecting with the people and the world around her she becomes healthier and her attitude drastically improves over time. She discovers the secret garden of her late aunt, and befriends a boy named Dickon, who has a special connection to animals and great gardening abilities. One-night Mary also discovers a boy of her age named Colin living in a hidden bedroom in the manor. She finds out that not only is he sick and unable to leave his bed, but also her cousin. As she gets to know him better, she becomes aware of how spoiled and self-centered he is. After Mary is upfront with him about his negative traits, he then also starts to go outside to the garden, which he had not done in years. Being around nature and friends, Colin’s health and perspective on life starts to change for the better.

  • Victorian Gender Negotiations in Burnett's Girlhood Fiction
    CHILD MOTHERS IN CHILDREN’S LITERATURE: VICTORIAN GENDER NEGOTIATIONS IN BURNETT’S GIRLHOOD FICTION by Hailey Siobhan Grist A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in English, Literature Boise State University May 2010 © 2010 Hailey Siobhan Grist ALL RIGHTS RESERVED BOISE STATE UNIVERSITY GRADUATE COLLEGE DEFENSE COMMITTEE AND FINAL READING APPROVALS of the thesis submitted by Hailey Siobhan Grist Thesis Title: Child Mothers in Children’s Literature: Victorian Gender Negotiations in Burnett’s Girlhood Fiction Date of Final Oral Examination: 26 March 2010 The following individuals read and discussed the thesis submitted by student Hailey Siobhan Grist, and they evaluated her presentation and response to questions during the final oral examination. They found that the student passed the final oral examination. Carol Martin, Ph.D. Chair, Supervisory Committee Cheryl Hindrichs, Ph.D. Member, Supervisory Committee James E.

The thesis was approved for the Graduate College by John R. Pelton, Ph.D., Dean of the Graduate College. For Bre Crosby-Martinez, sister of my heart v ABSTRACT Victorian girlhood literature frequently reflects and reinforces the dominant gender ideology of English culture by constructing female protagonists who are ultimately rewarded for conforming to the domestic ideal of the Victorian era. Through the medium of children’s literature, writers and publishers responded and contributed to the discourse on women’s roles in Victorian society, reacting to—and often against—the Women’s Rights Movement and the rise of The New Woman by targeting The New Girl.

  • A Critical Analysis of Frances Burnett's the Secret Garden
    [VOLUME 3 I ISSUE 1 I JAN. – MARCH 2016] e ISSN 2348 –1269, Print ISSN 2349-5138 http://ijrar.com/ IJRAR Impact Factor 3.215 Ideology and the Children’s Literature: A Critical analysis of Frances Burnett’s The Secret Garden Komal P. Raichura Lect. English A V Parekh Technical Institute, Rajkot, Gujarat – India. Received Feb. 29, 2015 Accepted March 10, 2016 ABSTRACT Children’s literature explicitly throws to the adult readers the ideologies and attitudes which the societies wish to engender in their children. Since these expressions are written, published and bought for children by the adult, the opinions of (believed) important behaviours can be easily posited through the readings. Studies show fiction helps children retain information about distant places and times better than more traditional teaching methods (McGowan 204). British books on colonial India clearly indicate these children how they need to behave and believe about themselves, being members of the dominant race with prospect of the colonized people of the Empire. This literature demonstrates the British as superior to the Indians and teaches children the same. Whether they were aware of it or not, the authors and publishers of such novels were helping to teach the Empire’s children how they should regard themselves. The paper examines various, at times surprising, interlinks between the nineteenth century British imperialist ideology and one of the popular children's classic – The Secret Garden. Burnett not only depicts, but indirectly endorses imperialism and empires. In the words of Roland Barthes, depoliticize the imperialist project – especially in India which, though not the physical/imaginative setting, constantly hovers in the background of The Secret Garden.

  • “A Mysterious and Wonderful Thing”
    ENGLISH “A Mysterious and Wonderful Thing”: Transformative Encounters in Frances Hodgson Burnett’s The Secret Garden Anna Karlsson Supervisor: Margrét Gunnarsdottír Champion BA thesis Examiner: Spring 2013 Fereshteh Zangenehpour Title: “A Mysterious and Wonderful Thing”: Transformative Encounters in Frances Hodgson Burnett’s The Secret Garden Author: Anna Karlsson Supervisor: Margrét Gunnarsdottír Champion Abstract: The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett is a story about a young girl’s encounters with nature, animals, people, and ultimately God, in a rural Yorkshire setting – it is a story about coming alive with the world on a spiritual journey in the midst of springtime. This essay will explore the encounters in The Secret Garden and their transformative impact on the characters and events in the novel, through the dialogic philosophy of Martin Buber, which is centred around the twofold nature of the I-You- and the I-It-encounter presented in his work I and Thou. The purpose of this study is threefold: firstly, to offer a new way of reading and understanding The Secret Garden by looking at encounter as the source of the transformation that takes place in the novel; secondly, to show that The Secret Garden is not only a literary but a philosophical achievement; and thirdly, to demonstrate the mutual benefit of an interdisciplinary approach to both philosophy and literature.

  • STUDIOCANAL, HEYDAY FILMS and ASTRID LINDGREN COMPANY to DEVELOP PIPPI LONGSTOCKING MOVIE
    STUDIOCANAL, HEYDAY FILMS and ASTRID LINDGREN COMPANY TO DEVELOP PIPPI LONGSTOCKING MOVIE London, Paris Wednesday 2nd October. STUDIOCANAL, Heyday Films and the Astrid Lindgren Company today announce that they are in early development on a film adaptation of PIPPI LONGSTOCKING. This project reunites STUDIOCANAL and Heyday following their successful collaboration on PADDINGTON 1 & 2. Pippi Longstocking is the main character in an eponymous series of children’s books by legendary Swedish author Astrid Lindgren. Pippi originates from bedside stories Lindgren told to her daughter Karin about an anything-but-pious girl with boundless energy. With her iconic red hair, freckles, strength, free spirit and bravery Pippi has become an icon of children’s literature and a role model for generations. In fact, she was “girl power” long before the term was even invented. Pippi is the ultimate fantasy for every child, and most grownups. As the strongest girl in the world, with a bag full of gold coins, she is totally independent. She is a person with power but never abuses it. On the contrary, she’s generous and kind – and she loves to have fun. Her qualities are more needed and relevant than ever. The first three Pippi chapter books were published from 1945 to 1948, followed by three short stories and a number of picture book adaptations. They have been translated into 77 languages with over 65 million copies sold world-wide. Like all great literature, the stories of Pippi Longstocking have amused and thrilled people of all ages in all parts of the world for almost 75 years.

  • In Plane Sight: Theories of Film Spectatorship and Animation
    IN PLANE SIGHT: THEORIES OF FILM SPECTATORSHIP AND ANIMATION BY ERIN C. HEATH DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English with a minor in Cinema Studies and a minor in Gender and Women's Studies in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2013 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Ramona Curry, Chair Professor Jose B. Capino Professor Lilya Kaganovsky Professor Richard Neupert, University of Georgia ii Abstract This dissertation undertakes to assess the pertinence of established theories of cinematic spectatorship to understanding viewers’ perception of animation, particularly cel and other animating cinematic practices (like claymation) that do not attempt to approximate the look of live action filming. The study considers the usefulness of psychoanalytic theories, cognitive studies, and cultural studies approaches to film spectatorship, in particular, to grasping animation’s impact on audiences. I argue that aspects of those film theories, although developed largely in relation to live action film, not only elucidate many facets of viewer responses to animated films, but also together yield a usefully comprehensive approach to cinema spectatorship more generally. The dissertation argues that theories of film spectatorship relating to four issues––questions of realism, character engagement, and the impact of sound effects and music––generally work to analyze audiences’ experience of animation. However, those overarching theories do require revision to account for two further issues that arise due to particularities in animation’s construction and reception: spectators’ readings of animated characters’ gendered and raced bodies and the accompanying disembodied voice performances.

  • The Secret Garden
    The Secret Garden Court Theatre, 2015 Charlie Newell, Director and Doug Peck, Musical Director Rehearsal Resource Packet By Megan Geigner, dramaturg Additional Research from Daniele Wieder "We've searched the servants' bungalow as well sir. It's just one blacksnake and this girl." Introduction Introduction While Marsha Norman and Lucy Simon’s musical has enchanted audiences since its Broadway run from 1991-3, the novel The Secret Garden, by Frances Hodgson Burnett, was hardly noticed when it was published in 1911. That the novel did not garner more fans during the author’s lifetime is all the more surprising since Burnett was a celebrity and the novel includes aspects of her own personal tragedy and personal politics. This packet provides background information on Burnett, Late Victorian era childhood, and the way the issues of adolescent psychology work through the text. So that we might better understand the spaces of the play, I have included sections on English Gardens, the moors, and British India. The last section is the script glossary to give us insight into some of the language in the script. All the sections include images so that we can imagine better the situation and moment of the story.
