Book Description:
|
Rudd explores and challenges the critical representation of the child in children's literature, looking at the child's positioning from a psychoanalytically informed perspective. He shows students how to work productively with theory, combining conceptual analysis with close-textual readings of key texts in a sophisticated yet readable manner.
