This course addresses literature for children mainly by British writers between the 1860s and the 1920s. This period was children's literature's "Golden Age," when children's writing deviated from earlier moral and didactic forms to other modes, including fantasy, new fairy tales, adventure stories, animal tales, nonsense writing, coming of age stories, and domestic fictions modeled on the adult realist novel. Among the authors we're likely to cover will be Lewis Carroll, Frances Hodgson Burnett, Edith Nesbit, Rudyard Kipling, Jean Webster, Mark Twain, and A. A. Milne.
