As with adult literature, this is a highly controversial issue. “Canon” conjures stability, but actually studying canon in art, and particularly in literature, casts doubt on that quality. In their study of canon-formation in children’s literature, Bettina Kümmerling-Meibauer and Anja Müller question the very idea of canonical immutability: “what canons generally do: they change!” And indeed, the persons involved in the formation of a literary canon – in our case, that of children’s literature – constantly grow in number, and reflect the shifting sociocultural landmarks of the late twentieth century and the first decades of the twenty-first. Thus, for example, the dominant role of the state in establishing the canon in the former Soviet bloc has given way to entirely different evaluative practices: Western commercialism, which was quick to fill a children’s-literary space newly liberated from ideologicaldiktat ; and the tumultuous development of a new children’s literature sparked by the lifting of censorship, and by a reorientation to new readerly interests. For the post-communist generation, the library’s role as canon-setter has decreased; but the significance of family tradition in selecting books to be read has grown considerably. The “literary field” (to use Pierre Bourdieu’s concept) of children’s literature involves complex interactions not only between writers (whether current or, for instance, having deceased prior to the turning-point year of 1989), but also between literary canons, some long absent, but all suddenly dwelling in the same “neighbourhood”. For example, in the 2000s, works by prominent avant-garde poets of the 1920s became part of what in Russia is considered classic children’s literature; at the same time, bookshelves remain full of socialist-realist poetry and prose, and the classic Soviet-era children’s writer Arkadii Gaidar is still ubiquitously promoted: in school curricula, online parenting sites, etc. In the Czech Republic, Peter Sis’s The Wall: Growing Up Behind the Iron Curtain (2007) stands side by side with the classic procommunist-era tales of Josef Lada, as well as Pavel Šrut’s entirely post-communist Sock-Eater stories. Forgotten names from the prerevolutionary canon of Russian children’s classics (e.g., Lydia Charskaia) freely mingle with Harry Potter. In Poland, the school canon includes poems by the communist Julian Tuwim and the seemingly innocuous stories of Jan Brzechwa about Mr. Kleks’s Academy. Coexisting thus within a single literary field are works from the socialist-realist children’s canon and a new literature emerging from traditional “zones of silence”:

  • John Newbery Award Committee Manual
    JOHN NEWBERY AWARD COMMITTEE MANUAL October 2009 John Newbery Award Committee Manual – Formatted August 2015 1 FOREWORD John Newbery The Newbery Medal is named for John Newbery (1713-1767), known as the first publisher of books for children. The son of a farmer, he married a widow who owned a printing business in Reading, England. They moved to London and, in 1743, Newbery published “A Little Pretty Pocket-Book, intended for the Instruction and Amusement of Little Master Tommy and Pretty Miss Polly, with an agreeable Letter to read from Jack the Giant-Killer, as also a Ball and a Pincushion, the use of which will infallibly make Tommy a good Boy and Polly a good Girl.” Although this was not the first book published for children (A Play-Book for Children was published by “J.G.” as early as 1694), Newbery was the first person to take children’s book publishing seriously, and many of his methods were copied by other authors and publishers. Newbery was an admirer of John Locke, who advocated teaching children through “some easy pleasant book, suited to his capacity.” Newbery’s books invariably had their didactic side, but he tempered instruction with a sense of humor. Works like Goody Two-Shoes, in which a poor but virtuous young woman is rewarded with riches, satisfied the moralists while providing a story with all the ups and downs of a modern soap opera. Other books on Newbery’s list included Aesop’s Fables, books of history and science, miscellanies, and even a children’s magazine, The Lilliputian Magazine, which contained stories, riddles, and songs.

  • Independent Scholar Shivaun Plozza the Troll Under the Bridge
    Plozza The troll under the bridge Independent scholar Shivaun Plozza The troll under the bridge: should Australian publishers of young adult literature act as moral-gatekeepers? Abstract: In the world of Young Adult Literature, the perceived impact of certain texts on the moral, social and psychological development of its readers is a cause for debate. The question ‘what is suitable content for a pre-adult readership’ is one guaranteed to produce conflicting, polarising and impassioned responses. Within the context of this debate, the essay explores a number of key questions. Do publishers have a moral obligation to avoid certain topics or should they be pushing the boundaries of teen fiction further? Is it the role of the publisher to consider the impact of books they publish to a teenage audience? Should the potential impact of a book on its reader be considered ahead of a book’s potential to sell and make money? This article analyses criticism and praise for two ‘controversial’ Australian Young Adult books: Sonya Hartnett’s Sleeping Dogs (1997) and John Marsden’s Dear Miffy (1997). It argues that ‘issues-books’ are necessary to the development of teens, and publishers should continue to push the envelope of teen fiction while ensuring they make a concerted effort to produce quality, sensitive and challenging books for a teen market. Biographical note: Shivaun Plozza is a project editor, manuscript assessor and writer of YA fiction. Her debut novel, Frankie, is due for publication by Penguin in early 2016. She has published short stories, poetry and articles in various journals, both online and print, and has won numerous awards and fellowships.

Abstract: This paper focuses on novels addressed to that category of older teenagers called “young adults”, a particularly successful category that is traditionally regarded as a subpart of children’s literature and yet terminologically insists on overriding the adult/child divide by blurring the frontier between adulthood and childhood and focusing on the transition from one state to the other. In Britain, YA fiction has developed extensively in the last four decades and I wish to concentrate on what this literary emergence and evolution has entailed since the beginning of the 21st century, especially from the point of view of genre and narrative mode. I will examine the cases of recognized—although sometimes controversial—authors, arguing that although British YA fiction is deeply indebted to and anchored in the pioneering American tradition, which proclaimed the end of the Romantic child as well as that of the compulsory happy ending of the children’s book, there seems to be a recent trend which consists in alleviating the roughness, the straightforwardness of realism thanks to elements or touches of fantasy.

  • Women's and Gender History in Central Eastern Europe, 18Th to 20Th Centuries
    Forthcoming in: Irina Livezeanu, Arpad von Klimo (eds), The Routledge History of East Central Europe since 1700 (Routledge 2015) Women‘s and Gender History1 Krassimira Daskalova and Susan Zimmermann Since the 1980s, historians working on East Central Europe, as on other parts of the world, have shown that historical experience has been deeply gendered. This chapter focuses on the modern history of women, and on gender as a category of analysis which helps to make visible and critically interrogate ―the social organization of sexual difference‖2. The new history of women and gender has established, as we hope to demonstrate in this contribution, a number of key insights. First, gender relations are intimately related to power relations. Gender, alongside dominant and non-dominant sexualities, has been invoked persistently to produce or justify asymmetrical and hierarchical arrangements in society and culture as a whole, to restrict the access of women and people identifying with non-normative sexualities to material and cultural goods, and to devalue and marginalize their ways of life. Second, throughout history both equality and difference between women and men have typically resulted in disadvantage for women. Men and women have generally engaged in different socio-cultural, political and economic activities, and this gender-based division of labor, which has itself been subject to historical change, has tended to put women in an inferior position. Even when women and men appeared as equals in one sphere of life, this perceived equality often resulted in drawbacks or an increased burden for women in another area and women‘s contribution was still devalued as compared to men‘s.
