Abstract:
The study is devoted to the interdisciplinary relationship between literature and music in the work of the most popular Polish writer from Silesia, Gustaw Morcinek (born Augustín Morcinek, August 24, 1891 in Karviná, Austria-Hungary – December 20, 1963 in Krakow, Poland). In his rich literary work for adults as well as for children and young people, while it is mainly prose, less often drama (he did not devote himself to poetry), we find inspiration in musical folklore (mainly Silesian, exceptionally Moravian and Slovak), also in popular and classical music. The music in Morcinek’s work serves, among other things, to better characterize space and time, character traits of the characters, and capture the overall mood of the literary work or part of it. In our study, we are methodologically based primarily on the works of the Polish comparatist Andrzej Hejmej, who has been theoretically devoted to the relationship between literature and music for a long time.

Abstract:
Background: Ján Stacho is an eminent Slovak author (1936–1995) who first has published in 1959. Two years later he became member of the so-called Trnava group, made up of him, Ján Ondruš, Jozef Mihalkovič and Ľubomír Feldek. The group’s poet-ics and aesthetics can be found in their manifestos – “There will be a talk about chil-dren's poetry”, “There will be a talk about translation” and “There will be a talk about poetry”, the last of which is lost. Ján Ondruš’s debut book “Wedding Journey“ was first published in 1961. His poems and one of the group’s literary manifestos are the subject of the present study. Purpose: The article examines the idea of childhood memory as “natural memory”. The concept is found in the poetry of Ján Ondruš, who is part of the Slovak poetry Trnava group. His poems serve the purpose of the article – to look at the realizations of the concretists’ theoretical views in the poems of the author mentioned above. Results: The article outlines the concept of memory, which we find in the aesthetic platform of the Slovak Trnava group, specifically in their manifesto “There will be a talk about children's literature.” In this text, the authors plead for writing poetry that is not “sucked from the finger” but is “squeezed” from memory. We deduce the “uses” of memory from the texts of one of the Trnava groups’ representatives, Ján Stacho. The subject of our research is his debut poetry collection from 1961, “Wedding Journey.” In his poems, we connect memory – as childhood and natural – with the metaphor of “salt-ing the senses” and the naive, unencumbered “sensing” the world to grasp the latter. We also include an intertextual reference to the text "Memory" of another poet from the Trnava group Ján Ondruš, which representatives refer to as one of their program’s works.

Abstract:
This article analyses Spanish poetry picturebooks for children and young adult readers based on adult poetry. It argues that the main changes that occur in the adaptation process involve the paratexts and literary communication, while the pictures play a prominent role in the creation of the new implied reader. The illustrations transform the original poems in many ways: they can describe, represent the poetic voice, add a story, introduce visual imagery or guide interpretation among other things. Finally, the article examines the pedagogical implications of these picturebooks and argues that they are a good resource for literary education, as they make great literature more attractive and accessible for children and young adults.

Abstract:
This paper presents the first systematic overview of the artistic production of Romany authors in literature for children and young people in Slovakia in the context of its three developmental stages – from the 1930s until the end of the 1950s, from the beginning of the 1960s until 1989, and from 1989 to the present. Simultaneously, the study points out the contemporary socio-economic conditions of Roma people’s life in Slovakia that are perceived as causes and consequences of their complicated process of self-identification, emancipation, and cultural self-realisation in Slovak art for children and young people. The paper highlights the beginnings of several Roma authors, who, in their poems, prose, and dramatic creations for children and young people, revived traditional motifs of Romany folklore (songs and folktales) about love and the ancient longings of Roma people for happiness, freedom, and liberty. Thus, they created the conditions for the forming and continuous development of Roma literature for children and young adults in Slovakia.

Abstract:
Allow me to introduce you to AN ELEPHANT'S STANDING IN THERE, a whimsical story about an elephant standing in a little boy's bedroom that I wrote for my children many years ago. Though my kids have grown up themselves, I've held on to this tale because of the wonderful memories my family and I shared while reading it together. After stumbling back onto the story roughly a year ago while going through some old things, an idea popped into my head. My daughter, a lovely young lady named Kody, had heard this story many times when she was a young girl. She had also developed an exceptional talent for illustration. I thought to myself, "Wouldn't it be fun if Kody illustrated our story for other families to share?" And that, ladies and gentlemen, is exactly what we've done. From my family to yours, we sincerely hope you enjoy AN ELEPHANT'S STANDING IN THERE, the first in what Kody and I hope will be a long series of stories for children. --Scott

Full text
Abstract:
This study of atomic-bomb literature on Hiroshima will be through a critical lens, largely through postcolonial theory and reader-response criticism. It will be a discussion on the social and political implications behind the popularization of certain works. The discussed texts will not necessarily be written by the Japanese or by survivors of the atomic bomb: in the first case, I will be examining authorial intent and its relation to the intended reader responses from the implied American audience to study perpetuations of propaganda after the war. This paper will also be examining the interlingual translatability of psychological and physical trauma surrounding the atomic bomb and will be exploring the capacities of language to express an emotional and often sensitive topic.

Nicholson, Michelle A. "“To be men, not destroyers”: Developing Dabrowskian Personalities in Ezra Pound’s The Cantos and Neil Gaiman’s American Gods." ScholarWorks@UNO, 2019. https://scholarworks.uno.edu/td/2628.

Full text
Abstract:
Kazimierz Dabrowski’s psychological theory of positive disintegration is a lesser known theory of personality development that offers an alternative critical perspective of literature. It provides a framework for the characterization of postmodern protagonists who move beyond heroic indoctrination to construct their own self-organized, autonomous identities. Ezra Pound’s The Cantos captures the speaker-poet’s extensive process of inner conflict, providing a unique opportunity to track the progress of the hero’s transformation into a personality, or a man. American Gods is a more fully realized portrayal of a character who undergoes the complete paradigmatic collapse of positive disintegration and deliberate self-derived self-revision in a more distilled linear fashion. Importantly, using a Dabrowskian lens to re-examine contemporary literature that has evolved to portray how the experience of psychopathology leads to metaphorical death—which may have any combination of negative or positive outcomes—has not only socio-cultural significance but important personal implications as well.

Full text
Abstract:
In general, the Czech and Slovak Republic are among the countries with increased alcohol consumption. It is clear that increased consumption can predict the occurrence of negative consequences that may subsequently be associated with various mental disorders. One of these mental disorders is depression, which is common in young adults and brings difficulties into their lives that can turn into problems in the future. The study examined the relationship between alcohol-related consequences and depressive symptoms in a sample of university students from the Czech and Slovak Republics in order to map the situation in these regions, where this problem is still ignored (n = 2514; CZE = 47.5%). The research included data from standardized questionnaires, namely the Young Adult Alcohol Consequences Questionnaire (YAACQ), which can predict alcohol use problems, and Health Questionnaire of depression (PHQ-9). The data was collected during the COVID-19 pandemic. Regarding sex differences, a higher YAACQ score was found in males and, conversely, a higher PHQ-9 score was identified in females. The results of correlation and regression analyses revealed significant associations between the scores in the individual YAACQ subscales and the PHQ-9 score, while low to moderate correlations were found in most cases. In all cases, positive trajectories were identified, meaning that the increased risk of depressive disorder can be associated with experience in selected dimensions of alcohol-related consequences. Stronger associations occurred in females than in males. In terms of practical implications, high priority was given to prevention programs and counseling. Professionals’ efforts to help young people should be sex-oriented, while females were more vulnerable to depression, males were prone to the consequences of alcohol use.

Abstract:
This chapter reads closely Isabel Quintero’s 2014 young adult novel Gabi, A Girl in Pieces. Quintero’s novel, which takes the form of a year’s worth of diary entries, and includes an illustrated copy of the titular character’s zine on female body diversity, narrates the story of a young Chicana outsider’s senior year of high school. In lieu of “fitting in” Gabi the teenage poet pens her way out of loss, homophobia, lurking sexual violence, grief, and depression. Gabi, A Girl in Pieces reveals that the creation of political art, the practice of writing, and the role of Chicana poetics can serve as vital creative outlets for Chicana outsiders, be they nerds, goths, geeks, or freaks.

Abstract:
Abstract The Meister Lieder were written in 1849. As was remarked earlier, Mignon (Kermst du das Land) was originally published as the concluding song of die Jugend, op. 27, #28, then judiciously relocated to become #1 of op. 98a, with songs based on poetry from Goethe’s monumental novel. The degree of maturity given Mignon in the disparate conceptions in which she is portrayed by Schubert, Schumann, and Wolf makes an interesting study in itself. For Schubert, Mignon is still Goethe’s young maiden. With Schumann and the listener is encountering not the dreams of youth but those of a mature woman. Mignon assumes opera-diva dimensions, her songs lending themselves to full orchestration. Schumann’s Mignon lodges between the Schubertian and Wolfian protagonists. Although Schumann originally included the song in his instructional book for the young, he remarked that he saw Mignon “on the threshold of adult life.”

Abstract:
First volume of Jan Lechoń poetry appears in print when he was 13. It surprises its maturity and depth. The young poet reached the common motives of decadent sadness and doubt, but spiritual loneliness, interest of existential themes were not typical for teenager. “Karmazynowy poemat” was received as a literary revelation. Lechoń reaches literary perfection as a young man, so all the adult life he efforts to remain poetic laurel. As a mature creator he glanced at his reflection in the mirror, not only to seek the passage of himself, but also to examine his conscience to settle with the past. At the end of his life, Lechoń was convinced “it is all over”. His poems from this period says about longing for the lost homeland. Inner conflict of poet balancing between memories of his youth and terrifying death wish was his characteristics lifelong feature. Premature maturity and tragic death seemed to be his destiny — each lived year of Lechoń’s life can be considered as a temporary postponement of death heppened to him on New York pavement on tragic Friday afternoon in June 1956.

Abstract:
This chapter reviews the transition in children’s literature after the 1960s from colonialist to postcolonialist content as a framework for understanding contemporary Anglophone Caribbean children’s literature. Local voices integrated folklore into curricular material beginning in the 1930s, with far more expansive output after 1960. Writers offer historical and realistic fiction that countered colonialist paradigms. Waves of immigration to the US, Canada, and Great Britain (with its Caribbean Arts Movement) contributed to the rise of such literature, proliferating into children’s poetry, folklore, and rhyming books that integrating tastes of the region’s linguistic Creole-informed cadences. In the past two decades, festival awards, non-profit organizations, and local publishing houses have fostered the development of young adult literature that now treats problems common to the genre—emerging sexuality, mental health, sports, romance, and issues of identity. Writers address contemporary problems such as poverty, global warming, and political corruption through multiple genres popular among the age group including dystopian fiction, romance, mystery, and new realism, often laced with bits of Caribbean mythology.

Full text
Abstract:
Felicitas Hoppe gives an introduction to the art of adapting medieval poetry that is in itself a poetic work. In 2008, Hoppe adapted Hartmann von Aue’s Arthurian romance Iwein into a highly successful young adult novel. She speaks about this experience and about the art of adapting medieval literature more generally: about encountering popular images of knights looking like ladies and about inverted gender roles in Hartmann’s romance; about history as produced by wishes; about finding Iwein by chance in a bookshop and being captivated by its beauty; about the romance’s surprising timelessness in its psychologically astute characterisation, its sensible rationality and its uncompromising morality; about the dialectic between boredom and adventure, between the desire to grow up and the fear of growing up in all good children’s books (and Arthurian romances); about the relationship between honour and masculinity in the romance code of values; about Iwein’s insistence on physicality; and about narrative techniques for modernising the text (including the introduction of Iwein’s companion, the lion, as the narrator). As a whole, Hoppe’s piece is a remarkably sensitive analysis of how and why aspects of medieval literature exert a fascination on creative minds. It compellingly demonstrates the wealth of insights that adaptors of medieval texts gain, which can complement and inspire those of literary critics.

Abstract:
The relationship between human and canine has long been a topic of interest, studied by many. It can be argued that the effect of a canine on their human is one of life's greatest and most impactful. Humane education recognizes this relationship and those of other animals in humans' lives. Humane education provides students with the background information necessary to properly treat animals, while simultaneously instilling a multitude of desired character traits that young people carry far into adult hood. During the 2014 and 2015 school year, an elementary school in The School District of Palm Beach County, Florida began implementing humane education in the classroom, as part of their environmental Green and School-wide Positive Behavior Support initiatives. Humane education curriculum implementation included visits from local author and President of The Little Blue Dog, a non-profit organization with humane treatment of animals at its core. A field trip to a Peggy Adams, a local, no-kill animal rescue was also provided for students in Grades 3rd and 4th, where students toured the facility and wrote haiku poetry about the pets that were up for adoption. Classrooms in Grades Pre-K through 5th were consistently exposed to topics and content pertaining to the proper care and treatment of animals, including critical character traits such as respect, empathy, responsibility, and kindness. As a result of the implementation of the humane education integration, the elementary school's student body further developed a culture in which the fore mentioned character traits (among others) were admired and adopted, creating a school environment in which respect and kindness were the expectation, and responsibility, a necessary must.
