Abstract:Art, in its different manifestations, is one of the many ways in which human beings express themselves and reflect on how they construct meanings, not only about themselves but also about their historical, social, and cultural context. In the case of literature, these stories bring readers closer to realities and topics that are different from their own, which allows them to broaden their experience. The present study analyzes two poetic works that interpret, from different perspectives, the effects and consequences of some of the most terrible episodes of the twentieth century; namely, World War II and the dictatorships in Latin America. The conclusions highlight the relevance of this type of work for the development of critical thinking through art to keep track of and repair the wounds of historical memory.

Abstract:Australian children's picturebook authors and illustrators who choose armed conflict as their subject matter inevitably grapple with the paradox that, while war is a central component of national identity, the experience of Indigenous peoples remains, at best, underrepresented. This article uses the ideational, interpersonal, and textual meta-functions developed by Clare Painter et al. to compare how the Indigenous experience of conflict is represented in the Australian children's picturebooks Alfred's War (Bin Salleh and Fry) and Multuggerah and the Sacred Mountain (Uhr and O'Halloran).
摘要：选择武装冲突作为主题的澳大利亚儿童绘本作者和插图画家不可避免地要面对这样一个悖论，即尽管战争是国家身份的核心组成部分，但土著人民的经历充其量仍然代表性不足。本文利用Clare Painter等人开发的概念、人际和文本元功能，比较了澳大利亚儿童绘本《阿尔弗雷德的战争》（Bin Salleh和Fry）和《穆图格拉与圣山》（Multugerah and the Sacred Mountain）（Uhr和O’Halloran）中土著冲突体验的表现。

Abstract:The ongoing war between Ukraine and Russia has brought the attention of Western academic discourses to the long history of Russian colonialism, cultural dominance, and military aggression. Ukraine has not been the only victim of Russian invasions in the last few decades. The following article depicts the voice of Georgia, a small country with a population of 3.7 million people that has also experienced the horror of war from its neighbors. This article focuses on studying the depictions of traumatized adolescents with the use of trauma theory and children's literature studies in two texts about the Abkhazian war (1992–1993) and the 2008 Russo-Georgian war: Nugzar Shataidze's "Journey to Africa" (2004) and Tamta Melashvili's Counting Out (2010). This article showcases that the discussed narratives reflect global trends in children's literature and literary trauma theory. I argue that Georgian fiction fits the pluralistic approach of the literary trauma theory, delineating individual stories intertwined with culturally and socially specific narratives. The examined texts are replete with geographic places, social values, and specific environments that shape Georgian society's collective trauma. Besides, adolescents are the central figures that expose the psychological, physical, and mental suffering that wars bring to society.

Abstract:In this article, Hans Alfredson's 1965 phonogram (LP) and illustrated children's book Blommig falukorv (Flowery Frankfurters) are analyzed with the help of play theory. The argument is that Johan Huizinga's theory of play provides a particularly fruitful approach to storytelling across media. The analysis focuses on a selection of the songs/texts from Blommig falukorv, categorizing them under the headings "Songs about Play," "Playful Humor and Nonsense," and "A Pornographic Appendix for the Youngest." Our reading of Blommig falukorv shows that play theory provides a useful approach to storytelling across media; in addition, Blommig falukorv appears to be a particularly rich case of storytelling play, as witnessed in the choice of subjects, language forms, visual style, musical composition, orchestration, and oral delivery and performance.

Abstract:In this article, we examine a corpus of recommended Spanish-language picturebooks published in Spain and Latin America between 2012–2018. We examine a corpus of fifty-six books that have received awards or are highlighted by reading-promotion institutions inquiring into how race and ethnicity are narrated in them. We first notice a predominant whiteness in these picturebooks: often characters are "paper white," as their faces take the white of the default color of the paper. We undertake a critical content analysis informed by intersectionality and decolonial thinking to show how ethnicity is absent, erased, or folklorized in these recommended picturebooks.
