Juvenile Literature and British Society, 1850-1950: The Age of Adolescence

by Charles Ferrall and Anna Jackson

Book Overview

In this study, Ferrall and Jackson argue that the Victorians created a concept of adolescence that lasted into the twentieth century and yet is strikingly at odds with post-Second World War notions of adolescence as a period of "storm and stress."
