At the same time, a new paradigm for parenting was unfolding that put emphasis on permissiveness, defined by what it permitted the free and unfettered impulses of children. Others worried that the wildness of children, personified by the characters in Maurice Sendaks 1963 classic childrens book, Where the Wild Things Are, was destructive, disruptive and disrespectful.Where the Wild Things Were centers on the exploding, contentious national conversation about the nature of childhood and parenting in the postwar US emblematized by Dr. Spocks Baby and Child Care. Renowned scholar Henry Jenkins demonstrates that the language that shaped a growing field of advice literature for parents also informed the periods fictionsin film, television, comics, childrens books, and elsewhereproduced for and consumed by children. In particular, Jenkins demonstrates, the eras emblematic child was the boy in the striped shirt: white, male, suburban, middle class, Christian, and above all, American.Weaving together intellectual histories and popular texts, Jenkins shows how boy protagonists became embodiments of permissive child rearing, as well as the social ideals and contradictions that permissiveness entailed. From Peanuts comic strips and TV specials to The Cat in the Hat, Dennis the Menace, and Jonny Quest, the book reveals how childhood and the stories about it became central to Cold War concerns with democracy, citizenship, globalization, the space race, science, race relations, gender, and sexuality. Written by a former boy in a striped shirt, Where the Wild Things Were explores iconic works, from Mary Poppins to Lost in Space, contextualizing them through a critical but respectful engagement with the core animating ideas of the permissive imagination....6872845Where the Wild Things Were610677https://www.gandhi.com.mx/where-the-wild-things-were-9781479831883/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/6775835/image.jpg?v=638721318654700000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20259781479831883_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_Explores iconic works from The Cat in the Hat to The Twilight Zone to explain cultural trends in parenting and how we conceptualize childhoodThe 60s produced a Baby Boom generation that catalyzed the dawn of a new erathe space age, the age of television, the global age, and the beginnings of civil rights.
