Philosophical Children in Literary Situations: Toward a
Phenomenology of Education argues that both phenomenology and
children's literature can assist one another in understanding the
lived experience of children. Through careful readings of central
figures in the phenomenological tradition, including Husserl,
Heidegger, and Merleau-Ponty, Costello introduces both the novice
and the scholar to the phenomenological method of describing
community, emotion, religion, gender, and loss-experiences that are
central to all humans, but especially to the developing child. When
turning to literary analysis, Costello uses the phenomenological
theory discussed to open up the literary texts of familiar and
award-winning children's chapter books toward new layers of
interpretation, reading such novels as To Kill a Mockingbird, A
Wrinkle in Time, and Charlotte's Web to participate in ongoing
conversations about childhood perception within children's
literature studies and philosophy for children. Scholars of
philosophy, education, literary studies, and psychology will find
this book particularly useful.
