Description
Drawing on a wealth of material from childrens periodicals from the Victorian era to the early twentieth century, Kristine Moruzi examines how the concept of the charitable child has been defined through the press. Charitable ideals became increasingly prevalent at a time of burgeoning social inequities and cultural change, shaping expectations that children were capable of and responsible for charitable giving. While the child as the object of charity has received considerable attention, less focus has been paid to how and why children have been encouraged to help others. Yet the ways in which children were positioned to see themselves as people who could and should help in whatever forms that assistance might take are crucial to understanding how children and childhood were conceptualised in the past. This book uses childrens print culture to examine the relationship between children and charitable institutions in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and to foreground childrens active roles.
