Review of textual transformations in children's literature: adaptations, translations, reconsiderations

The collection under review echoes the current academic calling for a move in adaptation studies beyond fidelity criticism, and examines textual transformations' conversations with original texts. It is featured by interdisciplinary approaches and an international horizon. It deals with adaptations of classical works of Shakespeare and Perrault, as well as those of the less well known, which are often complicated by media, nationality and time. Its international awareness is evident in the inclusion of three chapters on translation, and also in other chapters that have a cross-cultural perspective.
