Description:
Originally published as Poor Monkey, Peter Coveney's study of the theme of childhood in literature is an entirely unique work. Taking as its poles the revolutionary theories of Rousseau and our own post-Freudian era, The Image of Childhood surveys the ways in which the child has been portrayed, or frankly exploited, through a wide range of authors, from Blake and Wordsworth to Joyce and Lawrence, glancing by the way at some of the sentimental and sometimes morbid absurdities of the popular Victor Tovább.Slightest scuffing around edges of cover otherwise in excellent condition.
