Full Description
With children's literature a rapidly expanding and ever-evolving field, this research guide is devoted to the specialist skills and complexities of studying children's literature at university level and beyond. A spiritual successor to Kim Reynold's and Matthew Grenby's 2011 Children's Literature Studies, this book reflects on new directions and emphases in children's literature studies as seen by all levels - from undergraduates to postgraduates to early and mid-career specialists and offers practical guidance in locating and responding to research and funding opportunities, career development and impact. With a broad, international focus, A Practical Guide to Children's Literature Studies includes:
- Contributions from academics in the UK, US, Asia, Australia, Europe and South America
- Outlines of the field and the careers possible with specialisms in Children's Literature
- Sample research proposals from an MA dissertation to senior-level projects
- Guidance on locating grants, fellowships, collaborations and other opportunities
- A look at the ethical complexities of a field so close to children and young people
- Solutions to the problems researchers face entering the field
- Discussion of key archives, special collections and digital resources of international significance
- Advice on preparing for responsibilities within academia such as presentations and publication
- An exploration of how new, emerging and established scholars can maximise the impact of their work
- Worked examples, international case studies and guides to further reading
Filling a gap in provisions for all those looking to study or specialise in children literature, this is the ultimate guide for anyone seeking to position themselves in ways which will maximise their employability inside and out of academia.
