This book explores a central methodological issue at the heart of
studies of the histories of children and childhood. It questions
how we understand the perspectives of children in the past, and not
just those of the adults who often defined and constrained the
parameters of youthful lives. Drawing on a range of different
sources, including institutional records, interviews, artwork,
diaries, letters, memoirs, and objects, this interdisciplinary
volume uncovers the voices of historical children, and discusses
the challenges of situating these voices, and interpreting juvenile
agency and desire. Divided into four sections, the book considers
children's voices in different types of historical records,
examining children's letters and correspondence, as well as
multimedia texts such as film, advertising and art, along with oral
histories, and institutional archives.
