Children’s Literature, Culture, and Cognition

The overarching aim of the CLCC series is to promote new theoretical approaches in the realm of children’s literature research on the one hand, and to particularly encourage a non-Anglo-American focus, bringing in exciting research from other areas, on the other hand. In addition, the series presents research from many linguistic areas to an international audience, reinforces interaction between research conducted in many different languages and presents high standard research on the basis of secondary sources in a number of languages and based in a variety of research traditions. Basically the book series encourages a cross- and interdisciplinary approach on the basis of literary studies, media studies, comparative studies, reception studies, literacy studies, cognitive studies, and linguistics. The series includes monographs and essay collections which are international in scope and intend to stimulate innovative research with a focus on children’s literature (including other media), children’s culture and cognition, thus encouraging interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research in this expanding field.
