The work of children’s liberationists have been long been critiqued for pushing the parameters of rights discourse too far; specifically, by suggesting that there are no significant differences between children and adults, including their ability for self-determination. John Holt’s 1974 text Escape from Childhood is one such work which was deemed highly controversial for its time. This article uses Holt’s Escape from Childhood as an overarching framework against which to examine the current state of play on children’s rights as explicated through the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. It suggests that whilst Holt has often been critiqued for being too radical, in the context of current children’s rights discourse Holt’s visioning is not as radical as it might first appear.

Nomadic Narratives, Visual Forces explores issues, questions, and problems emerging in the analysis of epistolary and visual narratives. This book focuses in particular on Gwen John's letters and paintings. It offers an innovative theoretical approach to narrative analysis by drawing on Foucault's theory of power, Deleuze and Guattari's analytics of desire, and Cavarero's concept of the narratable self. Furthermore, it examines the use of letters as documents of life in narrative research and highlights the dynamics of spatiality in the constitution of the female self in art. This study brings together theoretical insights that emerge from the analysis of life documents - some of them previously unpublished - combining innovative research with specific methodological suggestions on doing narrative analysis.

Trabalho que investiga a recepção dos Kinder - und Hausmärchen em Portugal, fruto duma aturada e minuciosa pesquisa documental. Com efeito, Teresa Cortez passa em revista os livros e publicações periódicas enquadrados entre 1837 — data do aparecimento das primeiras traduções de contos dos KHM, no periódico lisboeta Biblioteca Familiar e Recreativa — e 1910, data a que a autora estendeu a sua pesquisa. Cada incidência da presença dos contos dos Grimm em Portugal é cuidadosamente investigada, contextualisada e analisada, Assim, à medida que vemos surgir, primeiro esparsas em revistas destinadas a um público infantil, e sem indicação de autoria, traduções (do francês) dos KHM, vamo-nos inteirando sobre o epírito e motivações do seu aparecimento, quer partindo do estudo comparativo com o texto de origem, quer de um exame da publicação de chegada, alargando-se a pesquisa aos seus editores e autores. Todo o processo de recepção dos contos de Grimm vai sendo examinado pela autora à luz dos movimentos das últimas décadas do séc. XIX e primeira do séc. XX, nomeadamente o nacionalismo neo-romântico e o positivismo.
