Excellent- More about The Edinburgh History of Children's Periodicals
Magazines have been an affordable and accessible way for children to read and form virtual communities, but they have not been studied to the same extent as children's literature. The Edinburgh History of Children's Periodicals is the first major history of magazines for young people from the mid-eighteenth century to the present, exploring the roles of gender, race and national identity in the construction of children as readers and writers.
Format: Hardback
Length: 688 pages

Publisher: Edinburgh University Press
Since the dawn of the 1750s, magazines have emerged as a cherished and accessible medium for children to embark on literary journeys and forge virtual communities. While a diverse array of children's periodicals exists, their scholarly exploration has lagged behind that of children's literature. However, the Edinburgh History of Children's Periodicals stands as a groundbreaking testament to the rich tapestry of magazines tailored specifically for young readers, spanning from the mid-eighteenth century to the present. This comprehensive volume brings together periodicals from across the globe, including Britain, Ireland, North America, Australia, New Zealand, and India, fostering a profound exploration of the intricate interplay between gender, race, and national identity in the formation of children as avid readers and aspiring writers. Through its meticulous examination, this book unveils fresh perspectives, shedding light on how child readers have influenced the magazines they have consumed and how magazines have nurtured a sense of political and global consciousness among young minds. This seminal work not only enriches our understanding of the historical development of children's magazines but also serves as a valuable resource for educators, scholars, and parents, empowering them to foster a love for reading and promote inclusive and diverse narratives in the ever-evolving world of children's media.
