NORTHERN EUROPEAN CHILDREN’S LITERATURE Writing & Global Cultures Flags / Spring 2018 Sandra Ballif Straubhaar MWF 1:00-2:00 / BUR 337 GSD 340 / 37765 EUS 347 / 35930 CL 323 / 32300 Course Description: This course will introduce students to nineteenth- to twenty-first-century children’s literature from Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Finland, Belgium and the Netherlands. Authors highlighted will include Heinrich Hoffmann (Struwwelpeter), Wilhelm Busch (Max and Moritz), Astrid Lindgren (Pippi Longstocking, Ronja the Robber’s Daughter, The Red Bird, The Brothers Lionheart), Erich Kästner (Emil and the Detectives), Dick Bruna (Miffy), Jostein Gaarder (Sophie’s World), Bjarne Reuter (The Boys from St. Petri), Tove Jansson (Finn Family Moomintroll), Otfried Preussler (The Robber Hotzenplotz, Krabat), Walter Moers (Capt’n Bluebear), Cornelia Funke (Inkworld, Mirrorworld), Sven Nordqvist (Pancakes for Findus), Michael Ende (Momo, Jim Button, The Neverending Story), Jacques Vriens (You’re a Hen!), Annie M. G. Schmidt and Fiep Westendorp (Jip and Janneke), and Klaus Schädelin (My Name is Eugen). Students are encouraged to explore additional authors and works for papers or group projects. Emphasis will be placed on the prominent place of children’s literature in the popular culture of central and northern Europe, as well as the serious issues and themes which north Americans might otherwise consider “adult” that are often found in this genre -- death, war, poverty, social justice, and family conflict, for example – alongside whimsy, warmth and wonder. Grading: Quizzes on Reading (on most Mondays, when readings are due): 10 % Two six-page reaction papers or position papers, 15% each: 30 % In-class peer review activities on the above two papers: 10 % One six-page research paper: 20 % Reading Journals (turned in 8 times, approx. every other Wednesday): 15 % One three- to five-page group project w/Power Point (groups of 3-4): 15 % Books: Packet: Available at Jenn’s Copy, 2518 Guadalupe St, Austin, TX 78705 (corner of Dean Keeton & Guadalupe, west side). Other Books: Each student is required to obtain at least 4 additional books via personal purchase or library loan. Titles will vary, of course. The only requirement is that they must be written by central/northern European authors for children/young adult readers. Readings from these books (plus materials from books and movies shared in class) will provide raw material for your papers/projects/presentations/reading journals. Don’t worry about the entries in the Packet that are in languages you can’t read. Do read them if you do know those languages. The point of most of the Packet Readings (the primary-source ones, in other words, which are excerpts from novels and picture books aimed at youth and young-adult audiences) is to act as teasers – like movie trailers -- so you can pick your reading/researching/writing topics. HOWEVER, ---- Whether or not you decide to further investigate any single author or book based on any given Packet Reading, do read all the ones in English at least. We’ll be discussing all of the work(s) and author(s) included in each Packet Reading in class, on Mondays and Wednesdays. NOTE: You can find the various Packet Readings for each Monday by consulting the Table of Contents in the front of the Packet. They are separated out in the Table of Contents according to these categories: Secondary sources; Primary Sources: Realism; Primary Sources: Fantasy and so forth. (The extra Lindgren material at the end is for those students who will choose to research and write about Astrid Lindgren in particular. Song words are included because songs are an integral part of so many of her stories. Most of the songs can be listened to on the Web, on YouTube and other places.) 1. Wed Jan 17.

    Mariko Mori and the Globalization of Japanese “Cute”Culture

    《藝術學研究》 2015 年 6 月，第十六期，頁 131-168 Mariko Mori and the Globalization of Japanese “Cute” Culture: Art and Pop Culture in the 1990s SooJin Lee Abstract This essay offers a cultural-historical exploration of the significance of the Japanese artist Mariko Mori (b. 1967) and her emergence as an international art star in the 1990s. After her New York gallery debut show in 1995, in which she exhibited what would later become known as her Made in Japan series— billboard-sized color photographs of herself striking poses in various “cute,” video-game avatar-like futuristic costumes—Mori quickly rose to stardom and became the poster child for a globalizing Japan at the end of the twentieth century. I argue that her Made in Japan series was created (in Japan) and received (in the Western-dominated art world) at a very specific moment in history, when contemporary Japanese art and popular culture had just begun to rise to international attention as emblematic and constitutive of Japan’s soft power. While most of the major writings on the series were published in the late 1990s, problematically the Western part of this criticism reveals a nascent and quite uneven understanding of the contemporary Japanese cultural references that Mori was making and using. I will examine this reception, and offer a counter-interpretation, analyzing the relationship between Mori’s Made in Japan photographs and Japanese pop culture, particularly by discussing the Japanese mass cultural aesthetic of kawaii (“cute”) in Mori’s art and persona. In so doing, I proffer an analogy between Mori and popular Japanimation characters, SooJin Lee received her PhD in Art History from the University of Illinois-Chicago and was a lecturer at the School of Art Institute of Chicago.

    Exhibition “Moomin Animations – Thrills and Cuddles” Coming to National Children’S Museum in D.C

    Exhibition “Moomin Animations – Thrills and Cuddles” coming to National Children’s Museum in D.C. August 13, 2021 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Moomins, the beloved fairytale creatures living in Moominvalley and created by Finnish author Tove Jansson, are the subject of a visiting exhibition at National Children’s Museum as of September. The upcoming exhibition, on loan from the world’s only Moomin Museum located in Tampere, Finland, showcases the universal values of the Moomins, such as equality, inclusion and respect for nature. The exhibition, Moomin Animations – Thrills and Cuddles, which is brought to the United States by the Embassy of Finland in Washington D.C., will open at National Children’s Museum on September 3, 2021, and will be on display inside the Visiting Exhibit Hall until January 9, 2022. This is the first time this exhibition travels abroad. It highlights the rich history of Moomin animations, which are based on the Moomin books and comic strips created by the renowned Finnish artist and author Tove Jansson (1914–2001). The Moomins are white and roundish fantastical characters with large snouts. The Moomin family and their friends live an adventurous life in the idyllic and peaceful Moominvalley. “The Moomins always treat nature with respect and live in harmony with the environment. The Moomin values, such as compassion and open-mindedness, are current, independent of time and place, and more relevant than perhaps ever before. As we follow the stories of Moomintroll’s growth and encounters, we can learn more about our own humanity, relationships and emotions,” explains Roleff Kråkström, Managing Director of Moomin Characters.

    The Vanished Land of Childhood: Autobiographical Narration in Astrid

    The Vanished Land of Childhood: Autobiographical Narration in Astrid Lindgren’s Work Bettina Kümmerling-Meibauer Published in: Barnboken . 1-2. Special issue: Astrid Lindgren Centennial Conference. 2007. 83-9. In her essays and speeches Astrid Lindgren stressed over and over again her special relationship to her own childhood However, what constitutes this relationship and how it influenced Lindgren’s literary development and her self- image as an author has not been adequately investigated. Based on the recently developed concept of cultural memory as a new paradigm in the cultural and literary sciences and on recent cognitive studies in memory research, I would like to demonstrate that there exists an important connection between literature and memory in Lindgren’s literary work. Three types of autobiographical writing The variety of autobiographical narration in Lindgren’s work is astonishing. Three types of autobiographical writing can be distinguished: (a) childhood memories in a general sense, i.e. autobiographical texts written for children and/or an adult readership, like Mina påhitt (“My Ideas,” 1971; Samuel August från Sevedstorp och Hanna Hult , (“Samuel August from Sevedstorp and Hanna from Hult,” 1975); Mitt Småland (“My Småland,” 1987) (b) “hidden” autobiography, for example The Children of Noisy Village , 1947; Mardie’s Adventures , 1960 (c) fictional autobiography, i.e. Assar Bubbla (“Assar Bubble,” 1987). The first type consists of Lindgren’s memories about her childhood and a biographical account of her parent’s love

Authors highlighted will include Heinrich Hoffmann (Struwwelpeter), Wilhelm Busch (Max and Moritz), Selma Lagerlöf (The Wonderful Adventures of Nils), Astrid Lindgren (Pippi Longstocking, Ronja the Robber’s Daughter, The Red Bird, The Brothers Lionheart), Erich Kästner (Emil and the Detectives), Dick Bruna (Miffy), Jostein Gaarder (Sophie’s World), Bjarne Reuter (The Boys from St. Petri), Tove Jansson (Finn Family Moomintroll), Otfried Preussler (The Robber Hotzenplotz, Krabat), Walter Moers (Capt’n Bluebear), Cornelia Funke (Inkworld, Mirrorworld, Pan’s Labyrinth), Sven Nordqvist (Pancakes for Findus), Michael Ende (Momo, Jim Button, The Neverending Story), Jacques Vriens (You’re a Hen!), Annie M. G. Schmidt and Fiep Westendorp (Jip and Janneke), and Klaus Schädelin (My Name is Eugen). Students are encouraged to explore additional authors and works for papers or group projects. Emphasis will be placed on the prominent place of children’s literature in the popular culture of central and northern Europe, as well as the serious issues and themes which north Americans might otherwise consider “adult” that are often found in this genre -- death, war, poverty, social justice, and family conflict, for example – alongside whimsy, warmth and wonder.

    Summer Reading Book Recommendations for EACMSI Junior Level the Junior Level Library Is Organized Into Five Categories. We Talk

    Summer Reading Book Recommendations for EACMSI Junior Level The Junior Level Library is organized into five categories. We talk to the children about how the process of learning to read is like the process of becoming a butterfly. Everyone starts learning the sounds of letters and slowly morphs until they can read big and complicated books with ease. Everyone makes this metamorphosis at their own pace. The most important thing is to keep practicing reading by choosing books that are “just right” for the reader. The first step on this path is with reading books we call “Emergent Readers.” These are often short books with lots of phonetic words and early sight words. Some of these books are smaller chapter books. The next four steps are “Egg,” “Caterpillar,” “Chrysalis,” and “Butterfly.” Our readers progress through each level as their reading skills develop until they become a full-fledged, high soaring Butterfly Reader! Our Summer Reading list is organized into our five categories, and students who have been in Junior Level over the past year should know which level of books will be the “just right” fit for them. We have also included a list of picture books, either for independent reading, if they are a “just right” book for your child, or for reading to your child as a delightful way to spend time together.
