The article Extra-educational Bestiary? Transformation of Animal Paradise Motif in Polish Young Adult Fantastic Literature is an attempt to define a new argument for a possibility of animal immortality on the basis of fantasy literature for children and young adults. For this purpose, Ewelina Rąb­kowska analyzes three examples of the theme of animal paradise in Polish animal fantasy novels for children and young adults. The main hypothesis of the article is that intuition of fantasy literature tells—in the same way as (defined in some previous papers) “poetical intuition”—stories about significant relationships between humans and non-humans, which last longer than single life. The author argues that contemporary fantasies for young adults are examples of crossing the borders of a traditional anthropocentric point of view. They show a new, post-humanist discourse about animals, change the language, narrative strategies and—what is most impor­tant—traditional didactic purposes of the text.

This case study uses three different frameworks of inquiry to examine Turtles All the Way Down by John Green (2017) with a disability lens. The analysis extends beyond the traditional medical/social dichotomy and considers how disability is tied to both agency and identity. Narratives and counter-narratives of disability are also investigated, as well as disability markers used in previous scholarship. The discussion concludes with an argument to include the novel in secondary English classes to create mental health allies.  A consideration for medical humanities scholars is also included to use Green’s text with patients with OCD, as a way for readers to find an identifiable protagonist.

The aim of this article is to look through the most attractive characters in books important to the contemporary Polish young adults. It concerns the ways young readers use, interpret and find the meaning in literature designed for them. The position of literary protagonist in the adolescent readers’ horizon of expectations has been described on the basis of values and attributes associated with enjoyable reading and books worth to recommend to readers’ peers. The analysis of spontaneous reading choices and characteristics pertaining to highly esteemed books formed the part of the results of nationwide adolescents’ readership survey conducted at the end of 2017. The article it is an attempt to answer the question: how adolescent readers engage with characters or entire books, how they could even become attached to them? There is discussion about the characteristics of a literary protagonist important in adolescent readers’ expectations of a satisfied reading, particularly in their axiological approach in interpreting literature and identification with literary protagonist and how they matter in reading engagement.

The article The new world of the old fairy-tale. “Ensel und Krete” of Walter Moers focuses on the novel Ensel und Krete of Walter Moers, which comes into various intertextual interactions not only with the Grimms’ fairy tale but also with fairy tale as a genre. The usage of traditional fairy-tale sche­mes allows Walter Moers to create an original version or a variation on the theme of Hansel and Gretel and to create a fantastic world. In this world the known, traditional, fairy precepts are challenged. In addition, the story of Ensel and Krete turns out to be an excuse to reflect on the genre, literature, and, moreover, literary culture in a broad sense. The article focuses on selected issues connected with the presence of a fairy tale in a fantastic text and is an attempt to explain the interplay of these two orders.

The article is an attempt to read books for young adult written by Katarzyna Ryrych – Pepa w raju,Król,Denim blue, by using the category of non-anthropocentric humanism. The tekst refers to a Przemysław Czapliński’s literary studies concentrating around things in modern literature. Katarzyna Ryrych presents the problems of modern teenagers, but she is aslo concentrate around everyday objects, clothes, souvenirs, and utensils. Ryrych used things to create heroes’ characteristics, describe their problems, and show interpersonal relationships. The author, according to Bjørnar Olsen’s theory, shows the influence of objects on the creation of the human psyche. Practices in relation to material objects, however, do not lead to materialism for the practices in relation to things are in a sense the learning of another person, remembering him, building relationships with another person.

Fair translation is one that results in producing a target text that is likely to evoke a reaction similar to that elicited by the source text among its readers. The translator’s goal is to provide the readers of the translated version with the stimuli as close to that of the original as possible. To ensure that, the translator must be free to use every solution they find appropriate on micro- and macrolevel. Olejniczak-Skarsgård’s Polish translation of the young adult novel Wonder by R.J. Palacio is a good example of such rendition. A number of translation challenges was dealt with by very diverse translation strategies. Combining approaches resulted in a readable target text that has the potential to provoke the same reaction as the original. This analysis can be followed by empirical studies regarding young readers’ reception of paratextual additions.

Uczciwe tłumaczenie to takie, którego rezultatem jest tekst docelowy wywołujący u czytelników reakcję zbliżoną do tej powodowanej przez tekst wyjściowy. By temu podołać, tłumacz musi mieć możliwość wykorzystania dowolnych rozwiązań translacyjnych na poziomie jednostkowym i całościowym. Polskie tłumaczenie powieści dla młodzieży Wonder autorstwa R.J. Palacio opracowane przez Marię Olejniczak-Skarsgård jest tego dobrym przykładem. Pojawiające się w niej problemy translacyjne zostały rozwiązane dzięki różnym strategiom. Dzięki połączeniu rozmaitych rozwiązań powstał czytelny przekład, który daje możliwość zareagowania na opowieść i jej elementy tak jak czytelnicy oryginału. Przeprowadzona analiza daje podstawy do badań empirycznych dotyczących stosunku młodych odbiorców do paratekstów.

Negli ultimi cento anni, e dal secondo dopoguerra al ritmo della great acceleration, l’antropocene ha intensamente investito il Nord-Est e ridefinito il nuovo triangolo industriale verso Oriente, sostituendo ai due vertici occidentali del passato – Torino e Genova – la via Emilia e il Veneto. La costa ha visto sorgere i settori merci, metallurgia, chimico, meccanico, cantieristico, petrolifero, elettrico di Porto Marghera; la pianura veneta le SMEs e l’emiliana le multinazionali; le montagne del Triveneto, esentate dall’industrializzazione, non lo sono state da una profonda modernizzazione senza pari in tutto l’arco alpino italiano. Di fronte a questi mutamenti quale ruolo viene dato alle tematiche ambientali dagli autori delle letterature per l’infanzia e per ragazzi del Nord-Est? Emergono (dis)continuità in una comparazione di opere da Salgari a Scarpa, passando per Albertazzi, Zavattini, Buzzati, Guerra, D’Arzo, Pratt, Malerba, Altan, Nanetti, Benni, Rigoni Stern, Molesini, Costa, Corona, Carminati, Sgardoli, Tamaro, Tessaro ed Ervas? L’articolo indaga come e quali autori presentino nelle proprie opere una sensibilità attiva utile per la formazione di una ecocoscienza. La metodologia incrocia gli strumenti critici maturati negli ambiti della critica ecopedagogica, dell’ecofemminismo e della matrice NatCul.

Over the last hundred years and since the Second World War at the speed of the Great Acceleration, the Anthropocene has been intensively impacting the Northeast of Italy and, as a result, redrawn the Triangolo Industriale, shifting it towards the East, whereby its two prior western cities – Turin and Genoa – have been replaced with the production hubs scattered along the Via Emilia and Veneto. The coastal region has seen the foundation and robust growth of Porto Marghera with its freight, metallurgy, chemical, mechanical, shipbuilding, oil and electricity sectors; the Veneto plain has witnessed an expansion of SMEs; and Emilia has become home to multinational corporations. While not subject to industrialisation, the mountains of the Triveneto have not been exempt from a thorough modernisation on the scale unparalleled in the Italian Alps. Considering these changes, this paper surveys a range of literary works from Salgari to Scarpa (via Albertazzi, Zavattini, Buzzati, Guerra, D’Arzo, Pratt, Malerba, Altan, Nanetti, Benni, Rigoni Stern, Molesini, Costa, Corona, Carminati, Sgardoli, Tamaro, Tessaro and Ervas) in order to establish what role is given to environmental issues by the authors of children’s literature in the Northeast and whether (dis)continuities emerge in the body of their writings in this respect. The paper also investigates which authors present an active sensitivity useful for fostering an eco-consciousness and in what ways they do so. The methodology combines an array of critical tools developed in eco-pedagogical criticism, ecofeminism and the NatCul Matrix, geared to answering a series of questions: (1) Is basic environmental literacy offered? (2) Is a critical reflection on human primacy and environmental (in)sustainability implicit, explicit or absent? (3) How are humanity and nature related in children’s literature? (4) How is eco-justice approached? (5) What attitudinal role does the narrative assign to nature?

U radu se analiziraju četiri djela hrvatske književnosti za mladež (Jesam li se zaljubila? i Što mi se to događa? Sanje Pilić, Čuj, Pigi, zaljubila sam se Branke Kalauz i Dnevnik prve ljubavi Silvije Šesto Stipaničić i Ratka Bjelčića). Romani se čitaju kao ženski žanrovi u kontekstu djevojačke kulture. Pokazuje se da u hrvatskoj književnosti za mladež postoje djela istovrsna onima za odrasle koji se ubrajaju u suvremenu hrvatsku urbanu žensku prozu, tj. svojevrsni domaći chick lit. Neizostavna je sastavnica svih djevojačkih i ženskih djela romantična radnja, stoga se najveća pažnja posvećuje upravo ljubavnoj tematici. Analizom spomenutih naslova s težištem na tom tematskom elementu dolazi se do zaključka o postojanju suvremene hrvatske urbane djevojačke proze namijenjene djevojčicama i djevojkama osnovnoškolske dobi. Drugim riječima, rad propituje mogućnosti chick lita u hrvatskoj književnosti za (djecu i) mladež te opisuje njegovo ostvarivanje praćeno potrebnim prilagodbama i preobrazbama.

The paper analyzes four recent Croatian young adult novels; i.e. Jesam li se zaljubila? (Have I Fallen in Love?) and Što mi se to događa? (What is Happening to me?) by Sanja Pilić, Čuj, Pigi, zaljubila sam se (Listen, Pigi, I Fell in Love) by Branka Kalauz and Dnevnik prve ljubavi (The Diary of a First Love) by Silvija Šesto Stipaničić and Ratko Bjelčić. The novels are framed within women’s genre and in the sub-genre of “girl” culture. The paper demonstrates that Croatian young adult literature has similar themes to those of adult novels which are part of contemporary Croatian urban female prose, or a kind of national chick lit. It also establishes differences between the adult-oriented women’s genres and urban girls’ fiction, such as clear educational intentions, the role of the mother’s character, etc. An unavoidable link of all girls’ and female writings is romance and therefore the greatest attention is paid to the thematic elements related to love affairs. The paper substantiates the existence of contemporary Croatian urban fiction intended for girls of pre-adolescent and younger adolescent age, and describes the specific features of the genre.

Im Beitrag werden vier kroatische jugendliterarische Werke (Jesam li se zaljubila? und Što mi se to događa? von Sanja Pilić, Čuj, Pigi, zaljubila sam se von Branko Kalauz und Dnevnik prve ljubavi von Silvija Šesto Stipaničić und Ratko Bjelčić) besprochen. Die Romane werden im Kontext der Mädchenkultur aus der Perspektive der Frauengenrestudien analysiert. Dabei wird festgestellt, dass es in der kroatischen Jugendliteratur Werke gibt, die jenen aus dem Bereich der Erwachsenenliteratur entsprechen, die der zeitgenössischen kroatischen urbanen Frauenprosa gehören, bei der es sich um spezifische einheimische chick lit handelt. Ein unvermeidlicher Bestandteil aller solchen Werke ist die romantische Handlung, in deren Rahmen der Liebesthematik die größte Aufmerksamkeit gewidmet wird. Anhand der von diesem Standpunkt aus durchgeführten Analyse vorgenannter Werke wird die Schlussfolgerung gezogen, es handle sich dabei um Texte aus dem Bereich der zeitgenössischen kroatischen urbanen Mädchenprosa, welche den Schulmädchen gewidmet sind. Infolgedessen werden im Beitrag die Einsatzmöglichkeiten von chick-lit in kroatischer (Kinder-) und Jugendliteratur hinterfragt bzw. ihre Verwirklichung durch erforderliche Anpassungen und Umgestaltungen beschrieben.

U književnosti za djecu i mlade motivu smrti nerijetko se pristupa s obvezom da čitatelj dijete, kojega se također suočava s (literarnim) gubitkom, zauzvrat dobije i zadovoljštinu i utjehu, odnosno da smrt ne bude prihvaćena kao konačno i trajno rješenje. Članak propituje prikaze smrti te načine pripovijedanja o njoj u odabranim tekstovima koji tematiziraju holokaust, a uključuju dječje pripovjedače ili likove. Uzimajući u obzir te dvije temeljne odrednice, narativ o smrti u kontekstu stvarne povijesne pozadine genocida i odabir djece kao pripovjedača ili likova, pretpostavlja se i drukčije poimanje smrti, ali i progovaranje o njoj, pri čemu se propituje snaga jezika kao temeljnoga instrumentarija pripovijedanja.

In the literature for children and young adults, the motif of death is not uncommon, but it is usually not accepted as a final and permanent solution. This paper examines the narrative representation of death in chosen texts that deal with the Holocaust and include children and young people as narrators or characters. Taking these two principles into account – the narrative of death in the context of the real historical background of genocide, and emphasising children as narrators or characters – we presuppose a different indication of death, as well as narration about it. Here we also debate the power of language in dealing with this subject matter.

Das Todesmotiv ist in der Kinder- und Jugendliteratur heutzutage kein so ungewöhnliches Motiv mehr. Dennoch wird in dieser Literatur meistens der Tod als keine endgültige und dauerhafte Lösung dargestellt. Im Beitrag werden die Darstellungsweisen des Todes in einigen Werken analysiert, deren Thema Holocaust ist und worin Kinder bzw. Jugendliche entweder als Erzähler oder als Gestalten vorkommen. In Anbetracht dieser zwei Tatsachen – des Erzählens über den Tod im Kontext des historischen Hintergrunds des Genozids und der Übernahme von Kindern als Erzähler bzw. Gestalten – ist in den analysierten Werke festzustellen, dass darin ein anderes Verständnis des Todes sowie eine andere Erzählweise entwickelt werden. Darüber hinaus wird im Beitrag auch die Macht der Sprache als Grundinstrument des Erzählens hinterfragt.
