Charles Dickens, children’s author
Despite the importance of child characters in the novels of Charles Dickens, his association with children’s literature is often forgotten, and his A Child’s History of England, first published in instalments in his journal Household Words ( January 1851 to December 1853), has frequently been ignored by critics. The aim of this article is to re-evaluate its achievement as an extended piece of story-telling, taking into account the particular cont…
Narrative Retellings
The aim of this collection of essays, as Marina Lambrou states in her Introduction, is to provide “new insights into the diverse forms of fictional and factional narratives and the many ways they can be told and retold,” using an “empirical stylistic approach” (1) and “a range of methodologies and frameworks” (16) in the process.

A response to David Jowitt's response
I must apologise to David Jowitt for having so clearly upset him by an article that was so clearly meant to be light-hearted. It was also oriented towards the stereotypical portrayals of the language of royalty, and the ways myth and reality frequently coincide. If I did not make the distinction clear enough, I apologise; but in places I did not really intend a distinction. Moreover, it was the editor himself, Tom McArthur, who suggested I extend…
