Meer over het boek

Transformations in schooling and literacy in Britain from 1780 to 1832 significantly influenced the development of literature. The study explores definitions of childhood, educational practices, and the emergence of children's literature, particularly focusing on female education. It highlights how reading and education reshaped social relations and reinterprets Romantic texts through the lens of these historical and social changes, providing a unique intersection of literary and educational history.
