ITAL 3460 - Growing Up Italian Style: Children’s Culture


In this course, we will explore how major works of literature for children, from Collodi’s The Adventures of Pinocchio, to the poetry of Gianni Rodari, reflect changing views of childhood and parenting in Italy. Students will learn how children’s literature of the 19th-century helped to create an Italian national identity. We will also examine how new media inventions changed story time for children in Italy. Prerequisite: ITAL 3010
