Vibrant Rivers in Three Hybrid Books for Young Readers Addressing Climate Change and Matter Awareness
Rivers have been the starting point and location for philosophical, religious, and literary thoughts about the world and humans’ relationship to it and to the hereafter for thousands of years. Children’s literature is no exception, and through a new materialist and material ecocritical lens, this article examine rivers that speak up or are recognized as crucial for ecological interactions. The aim is to explore how rivers function both as a form …
Paratranslating Child-Environment Relations: 22 Translations of Keeperen Og Havet by Maria Parr
This article analyses the many different covers of the children’s novel Keeperen og havet (The Goalkeeper and the Sea) by Parr. It aims to determine how the child-environment relations or assemblages are represented on the source cover and its various translations. The analytical and conceptual framework applied for the visual content analysis of the covers’ designs combines intersemiotic and paratranslation theory with posthuman and new material…
Realisering av barns rettigheter i bøker nominert til Bokslukerprisen 2021/2022
Artikkelen er motivert av Michelle Superles oppfordring til en barneorientert kritisk tilnærming til barnelitteratur, kalt «child-centered critical approach to children’s literature» (CCA). Nøkkelprinsippet for denne tilnærmingen er anerkjennelsen av FNs barnekonvensjon. Innrammet av CCA og Barnekonvensjonen, er målet med denne artikkelen å kartlegge og undersøke ti barnebøker nominert til Bokslukerprisen 2021/2022 med tanke på hvilken rolle de v…
Ecocritical dialogues in teacher education
This article argues that revisions of curricula in teacher education, undertaken in response to the UN’s Agenda 2030, goal 4.7, and the OECD’s The Future of Education and Skills, need to consider new ways of teaching topics related to current environmental issues. Grounded in ecocriticism and dialogic teaching practices, this article promotes ecocritical dialogues, as developed by the research group Nature in Children’s Literature and Culture, as…
Material Green Entanglements: Research on Student Teachers’ Aesthetic and Ecocritical Engagement with Picturebooks of Their Own Choice
This article reports on a course module designed to promote an ecocritical and new materialist approach to children’s literature and to support student teachers’ skills regarding sustainability. The course module was offered in autumn 2020 and was completed by 260 students of children’s literature with no previous scholarly knowledge about ecocriticism prior to the course. Building on basic ecocritical theory, posthuman perspectives on humans’ in…
Hvordan kan vi analysere sakprosa for barn og unge? – How Can we Analyse Information Texts for Children and Young Adults
I flere tiår har den beste sakprosaen for barn og unge vært premiert både nasjonalt og internasjonalt. Det hevdes også at de mest innovative bildebøkene de siste tretti år er å finne blant de som formidler viten om verden. Til tross for priser og originalitet har det barnelitterære forskningsfeltet i liten grad gitt plass til nærmere undersøkelser av sakprosa for barn og unge og til å utvikle analyseverktøy å møte den med.For å bidra til økt fors…
Pålitelig kunnskap, engasjerende språk – Reliable knowledge, engaging language
Når begrepet sakprosa for barn er blitt tatt i bruk de siste årene, på bekostning av betegnelser som «faktabøker» eller «faglitteratur», henger det sammen med tydelige endringer i litteraturen selv. Målgruppen for mange av utgivelsene er eldre enn tidligere, gjerne det som blir kalt unge voksne, kunnskapen som formidles er mer kompleks og ofte knyttet til emneområder det ikke har vært vanlig å eksponere unge lesere for, og det visuelle uttrykket …
