Abstract

For many of us, our earliest and most meaningful experiences with literature occur through the medium of a translated children?s book. This volume focuses on the complex interplay that happens between text and context when works of children?s literature are translated: what contexts of production and reception account for how translated children?s books come to be made and read as they are? How are translated children?s books adapted to suit the context of a new culture? Spanning the disciplines of Children?s Literature Studies and Translation Studies, this book brings together established and emerging voices to provide an overview of the analytical, empirical and geographic richness of current research in this field and to identify and reflect on common insights, analytical perspectives and trajectories for future interdisciplinary research.0This volume will appeal to an interdisciplinary audience of scholars and students in Translation Studies and Children?s Literature Studies and related disciplines. It has a broad geographic and cultural scope, with contributions dealing with translated children?s literature in the United Kingdom, the United States, Ireland, Spain, France, Brazil, Poland, Slovenia, Hungary, China, the former Yugoslavia, Sweden, Germany, and Belgium.

Abstract

Based on sources from rare book libraries in Russia and around the world, Picturing the Page offers a vivid exploration of illustrated children’s literature and reading under Lenin and Stalin – a period when mass publishing for children and universal public education became available for the first time in Russia. By analysing the illustrations in fairy tales, classic "adult" literature reformatted for children, and war-time picture books, Megan Swift elucidates the vital and multifaceted function of illustrated children’s literature in repurposing the past. Picturing the Page demonstrates that while the texts of the past remained fixed, illustrations could slip between the pages to mediate and annotate that past, as well as connect with anti-religious, patriotic, and other campaigns that were central to Soviet children’s culture after the 1917 Revolution.
