O encontro entre imagologia e literatura infantil
A partir da década de 1970, a pesquisa em literatura infantil desenvolveu diversas abordagens, desde críticas ideológicas simples até aplicações mais sofisticadas da teoria pós-colonial, para analisar como, e com qual finalidade, membros de outros grupos nacionais, culturais, raciais e étnicos são representados em textos para crianças. No entanto, um campo de estudo pertencente à Literatura Comparada, a Imagologia, que trata especificamente da co…
Making my voice and owning its future
This article explores disabled experience and the future of technologies relating to augmentative and alternative communication (AAC). This field includes people's use of AAC devices, typically in combination with other modes of communication, including vocalising, revoicing and body language. Such devices have speech technology and digital voices built into them and we will consider who could be said to have ownership of these technologies. We w…
Swift, Jonathan: Travels Into Several Remote Nations of the World: By Lemuel Gulliver, First a Surgeon, and Then a Captain of Several Ships
Der unter einem Pseudonym veröffentlichte satirisch-phantastische Reiseroman wurde um 1713 im Londoner Scriblerus Club konzipiert, einer Vereinigung von Autoren (u. a. Swift, Gay , Pope ), die das Ziel verfolgten, populäre Gattungen und „falschen Geschmack in der Gelehrsamkeit“ satirisch zu überzeichnen. Verfasst wurde er zwischen 1720 und 1725 in Dublin. Aus begründeter Angst vor Strafverfolgung wegen Verleumdung wurde das Manuskript von fremder…

Translating children's literature: What, for whom, how, and why. A basic map of actors, factors and contexts
This article presents a systematic look at the different actors, factors, and contexts involved in the field of translating children's literature. Taking as its point of departure the somewhat provocative question "Why translate children's literature?", it goes on to parse the three component parts. "Why?" involves looking at the motivation and interests of the various human and non-human actors (publishing houses, organizations, translators etc)…
Comparative children’s literature
Comparative literature is concerned with the study of literature and literary theory and criticism in an international context and with literary texts in relation to other media and disciplines; it is dedicated to ‘the cross-cultural and interdisciplinary study of literature and culture’. The founding father of comparative children’s literature is Paul Hazard, the leading French comparatist, who with Les Livres, les enfants et les hommes publishe…

Comparative Children's Literature
WINNER OF THE 2007 CHLA BOOK AWARD! Children's literature has transcended linguistic and cultural borders since books and magazines for young readers were first produced, with popular books translated throughout the world. Emer O'Sullivan traces the history of comparative children's literature studies, from the enthusiastic internationalism of the post-war period – which set out from the idea of a supra-national world republic of childhood – to m…
Narratology meets Translation Studies, or, The Voice of the Translator in Children’s Literature
When critics identify ‘manipulations’ in translations, these are often described and analysed in terms of the differing norms governing the source and the target languages, cultures and literatures. This article focuses on the agent of the translation, the translator, and her/his presence in the translated text. It presents a theoretical and analytical tool, a communicative model of translation, using the category of the implied translator, the c…
