Children's Literature and Intergenerational Relationships: Encounters of the Playful Kind explores ways in which children's literature becomes the object and catalyst of play that brings younger and older generations closer to one another. Providing examples from diverse cultural and historical contexts, this collection argues that children's texts promote intergenerational play through the use of literary devices and graphic formats and that they may prompt joint play practices in the real world. The book offers a distinctive contribution to children's literature scholarship by shifting critical attention away from the difference and conflict between children and adults to the exploration of inter-age interdependencies as equally crucial aspects of human life, presenting a new perspective for all who research and work with children's culture in times of global aging.

De auteur onderzoekt de genrekenmerken en gebruiksaspecten van het prentenboek. Hij plaatst deze boeksoort in een emancipatiorisch perspectief en verbindt haar met de grote sociaal-democratische projecten van cultuurspreiding en leesbevordering. Meer concreet onderzoekt hij de verschillende bemiddelaren tussen boek en kind: de uitgever, de literaire en educatieve kritiek, het onderwijs en de bibliotheek. Er ontstaat zo een breed en gedetailleerd panorama van wat er in de afgelopen decennia is ondernomen door overheid en particuliere instellingen op het gebied van lezen en kinderboeken, met de nadruk op het prentenboek, en wat hiervan de effecten zijn geweest.

In the classic rags-to-riches fairy tale a penniless heroine (or hero), with some magic help, marries a royal prince (or princess) and rises to wealth. Received opinion has long been that stories like these originated among peasants, who passed them along by word of mouth from one place to another over the course of centuries. In a bold departure from conventional fairy tale scholarship, Ruth B. Bottigheimer asserts that city life and a single individual played a central role in the creation and transmission of many of these familiar tales. According to her, a provincial boy, Zoan Francesco Straparola, went to Venice to seek his fortune and found it by inventing the modern fairy tale, including the long beloved Puss in Boots, and by selling its many versions to the hopeful inhabitants of that colorful and commercially bustling city. With innovative literary sleuthing, Bottigheimer has reconstructed the actual composition of Straparola's collection of tales. Grounding her work in social history of the Renaissance Venice, Bottigheimer has created a possible biography for Straparola, a man about whom hardly anything is known. This is the first book-length study of Straparola in any language.
