Amazon.com description: Product Description:

Demonstrating the aesthetic, cultural, political, and intellectual diversity of children’s literature across the globe, The Routledge Companion to International Children’s Literature is the first volume of its kind to focus on the undervisited regions of the world. With particular focus on Asia, Africa, and South America, the collection raises awareness of children’s literature and related media as they exist in large regions of the world to which ‘mainstream’ European and North American scholarship pays very little attention.

Sections cover:
-Theoretical Issues in International Children’s Literature
-National Identity and Historical Contexts
-Cross-cultural Encounters
-Children’s Texts and Cultural Forms
-Origins – Folktale and Traditional Story
-Global Children’s Literatures

Exposition of the literary, cultural, and historical contexts in which children’s literature is produced, together with an exploration of intersections between these literatures and more extensively researched areas, will enhance access and understanding for a large range of international readers. The essays offer an ideal introduction for those newly approaching literature for children in specific areas, looking for new insights and interdisciplinary perspectives, or interested in directions for future scholarship.
