Description
Summary:Theme: Children's Literature Reviews - How, Where and Who? Ill. Jenny Nyström from Barnkammarens bok, 1882. The Order of Children’s Literature Criticism: Book Reviews of Children’s Literature in Swedish Newspapers and Blogs in 2006 and 2016 Based on computational analyses of book reviews of children’s literature in relation to other literary criticism from the years 2006 and 2016 in daily press and book blogs, this study examines the discursive order of children’s book reviews. The study is inspired by the analytical model employed by Lina Samuelsson in Kritikens ordning (2013). Specifically we focus on the characteristics of children’s book criticism and questions whether it differs from other literary reviews, and if so, how. The article identifies several essential features present in children’s book reviews, and discusses possible differences between reviews in the daily press and those on book blogs. We conclude that our mixed-methods approach – “computational” combined with “traditional” – allows us to highlight both similarities and differences between children's literature criticism and literary criticism in general, and that there is value in examining children’s book reviewing from both digital and traditional perspectives.
