The Mind of the Child: Child Development in Literature, Science, and Medicine, 1840-1900
Shuttleworth, Sally (Professor of English Literature, and Head of Humanities Division, University of Oxford)
In the 1840s novelists such as Brontë and Dickens began to explore the inner world of the child. Simultaneously the first psychiatric studies of childhood were appearing. Moving between literature and science, Sally Shuttleworth explores issues such as childhood fears, imaginary lands, sexuality, and the relation of the child to animal life.
