Scheick; ROMANTICISM AND ARCHETYPES IN RUTH NICHOLS'S ""SONG OF THE PEARL"" Teya Rosenberg; Notes on Contributors; IndexThese distinguished essays powerfully define the myriad ways in which the Romantic image of the child, so compellingly portrayed by Wordsworth and Blake, continues to haunt us, shaping contemporary visions of childhood from Calvin and Hobbes to postmodernist poetry and fiction to sociological discussions of child-labor, child-abuse and the feminization of poverty.
