초록
This paper aims to demonstrate why Nathaniel Hawthorne's A Wonder Book for Boys and Girls(1851) is a revolutionary work in America’s juvenile literature. Hawthorne began to write juvenile works, publishing “Little Annie’s Ramble” anonymously. He published Grandfather’s Chair Series(1840-41) and Biographical Stories(1842) under his own name successfully, which combined American history with imagination. He could share the childhood concept with the Transcendentalists and be absorbed in the imagination. Having the idea of childhood, he continued to retell classical myths in A Wonder Book and Tanglewood Tales. In A Wonder Book, he created a lot of bright children including a youth narrator Eustas Bright who could come in and out a neutral territory between the real world and fairy-land to tell stories full of imagination. It remains an important historical text because it contributed to the shift reading culture that allowed children to read with and for pleasure.
