A Catalogue of the Cotsen Children's Library
In fall 1996, the Cotsen staff began compiling a multi-volume book catalogue of the research collection, with support from the Department of Rare Books and Special Collections and the Technical Services Department of the Princeton University Library.00With the publication in 2020 of The Pre-1801 volumes I (A-K) and II (L-Z), the project now covers publications from the earliest books through the 20th century.00Preceded by those for the Twentieth Century (12,403 entries) and the Nineteenth Century (6, 370 entries), these final descriptive volumes cover 1,309 entries for books printed between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries. In these volumes one will encounter detailed descriptions of children's books produced during the decades leading up to an intellectual culmination that was established by the end of the 18th century: that is, the idea of the children's book as one designed for "instruction and delight."
The Cambridge Companion to Children's Literature
Some of the most innovative and spell-binding literature has been written for young people, but only recently has academic study embraced its range and complexity. This Companion offers a state-of-the-subject survey of English-language children's literature from the seventeenth century to the present. With discussions ranging from eighteenth-century moral tales to modern fantasies by J. K. Rowling and Philip Pullman, the Companion illuminates acknowledged classics and many more neglected works. Its unique structure means that equal consideration can be given to both texts and contexts. Some chapters analyse key themes and major genres, including humour, poetry, school stories, and picture books. Others explore the sociological dimensions of children's literature and the impact of publishing practices. Written by leading scholars from around the world, this Companion will be essential reading for all students and scholars of children's literature, offering original readings and new research that reflects the latest developments in the field.
