The ideology of innocence was much slower to spread than we think, she contends, and the people whom we assume were most committed to it--children's authors and members of the infamous "cult of the child"--were actually deeply ambivalent about this Romantic notion. Rather than wholeheartedly promoting a static ideal of childhood purity, Golden Age children's authors often characterize young people as collaborators who are caught up in the constraints of the culture they inhabit, and yet not inevitably victimized as a result of this contact with adults and their world. Such nuanced meditations on the vexed issue of the child's agency, Gubar suggests, can help contemporary scholars to generate more flexible critical approaches to the study of childhood and children's literature.Children's literature, EnglishHistory and criticismEnglish literature19th centuryHistory and criticismChildren in literatureAdolescence in literatureChildren's literature, EnglishHistory and criticism.English literatureHistory and criticism.Children in literature.Adolescence in literature.820.9/928209034Gubar Marah1707065MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9910821864603321Artful dodgers4094977UNINA
