Abstract
Childrens Literature on the Move is the sixth volume in the Studies in Childrens Literature series. From translating Alice in Wonderland for a newly independent Ireland to Turkish childrens comics at the time of Atatürk, and from Pangur Bán to post-communist Eastern Europe, it places Irish childrens literature in international and multilingual contexts, drawing new connections across and beyond Europe. The essays collected here examine the creation and contestation of national identities in Polish, Estonian, Turkish, French, Irish, English and Canadian writing. Authors discussed included Siobhan Dowd, Faïza Guène, Jacek Dukaj, James Heneghan, Caroline Pignat and Aino Pervik. The collection closes with an essay by Siobhán Parkinson on translating childrens literature in contemporary Ireland.
