Taking stock of co-production and partnership with people with lived experience in social work knowledge production and publishing
In this Editorial, we wanted to reflect on and retrace our steps as a collective that has strived to embed and promote the voice and influence of people with lived experience of social work within the work of the British Journal of Social Work (BJSW) over the past three to five years. In doing so, we build on previous Editorials we wrote on this topic (Maglajlic and Ioakimidis 2022; Beresford et al. 2023; Maglajlic et al. 2023; Ali et al. 2024; H…
Manga Shakespeare and Cervantes
This paper considers the merit of manga versions of Shakespeare's Hamlet and Cervantes' Don Quijote de la Mancha which employ the impressionistic techniques of the Japanese comic format to create new, dynamic texts. Such multimodal texts demand different verbal and visual skills to decode the synergy between word and image and elements like the page layout, the size and shape of images and speech balloons and the style of lettering. Far from deba…
A Prelinguistic Gestural Universal of Human Communication
Several cognitive accounts of human communication argue for a language‐independent, prelinguistic basis of human communication and language. The current study provides evidence for the universality of a prelinguistic gestural basis for human communication. We used a standardized, semi‐natural elicitation procedure in seven very different cultures around the world to test for the existence of preverbal pointing in infants and their caregivers. Res…
"Girls Aloud"; Dialogue as a Pedagogical Tool in Eighteenth-century French Children's Literature
Girls Aloud";Dialogue as a Pedagogical Tool in Eighteenth-century French Children's Literature Penny Brown (bio) The development of children's books in France is inseparable from the debates about education that took place throughout the eighteenth century. Some 180 books, articles, projects, and treatises on education were published in the course of the century and their substance and impact has been well-documented (Leith 14). The debates were …
Capturing (and Captivating) Childhood
Just as views on childhood and the upbringing of children in the eighteenth century were affected by social and economic factors, so the development of the children's book trade in Britain and France was influenced by evolving views on the family and social class, the place of religion in daily life, the interest in science, the rise of consumerism, the growth in literacy and, perhaps most importantly, the debate about education. During the centu…
Children of the Revolution – the Making of Young Citizens
The child and childhood were vital aspects of the ideology of the French Revolution, and the education of the young in the new ways of thinking was perceived as an urgent ideological enterprise in the 1790s. Little attention has been paid, however, to the strategies employed by writers of books for the young to mould a young and impressionable readership. The decade saw an attempt to revise from the grass roots level children's experience of book…
Improvising Virtue
In Les Jeux de la petite Thalie, ou petits drames, dialogués sur des proverbes (1769), Alexandre-Guillaume Mouslier de Moissy appropriated the proverbe dramatique , a popular pastime in eighteenth-century drawing-rooms, for pedagogical use with the young. This was the first volume in an ambitious three-volume work offering short dramatic pieces for all the different stages in life. Far less well known than the later théâtre d'éducation of Mme de …
